When should you choose blue (simple use)?

  • For temporary covering and intermittent use: travel, temporary storage and protection of furniture during transport.
  • When light weight and ease of folding are more important than long-term endurance under the sun.
  • For long-term use in the open or with strong winds, the most suitable tarpaulin is a heavy-duty tarpaulin such as the heavy-duty orange Palm tarpaulin or the heavy-duty black and gray tarpaulin .

Usage tips

  • Tie the tarpaulin at all loops with equal tension so that no single loop is torn by the air.
  • Give it a slight slope when covering surfaces so that rainwater does not collect in the middle.
  • Dry it before folding and storing to prolong its life.
