The Escapist Tarp is made from 15D nylon, with a polyurethane coating on the inside and siliconized finish on the outside. Like many siliconized fabrics (including Ultra-Sil Nano), the DWR finish may contain a small amount of PFCs.
The Escapist Tarp is not treated with flame retardants.
Cleaning your Escapist Tarp
- For everyday use, cleaning isn’t usually necessary – a quick wipe with a damp sponge will remove dust.
- In areas with heavy soot (such as burn scar zones), you may need to hand wash:
- Use a large tub with warm water and a small amount of dish soap.
- Rinse thoroughly.
- Air dry completely before storing.
Storing your Escapist Tarp
- Do not store the Escapist in its stuff sack long term. Any trapped moisture may compromise the polyurethane coating.
- Instead, store it loosely folded in a dry, well ventilated space (not in a sealed container).
