about which clips

On Jan 4, 2009
Good Morning,

I have a coated nylon tarp. Do I go with the light fabric clip or the general purpose clip? Does it matter? It wouldn’t matter if I bought the general purpose clip would it?

Thanks for your reply,
Dave

The General Purpose Grip Clip would need to be backed with some blue tarp material to grip a light weight nylon tarp. The reason is that the thickness of the nylon tarp is too thin. The Light Fabric Grip Clip may be just right but if you are talking about silcloth you will need a gasket make from a balloon even with the Light Fabric Grip Clip: see: https://shelter-systems.com/gripclips/ultra-light-silicon-tarps.html
