It's fine right after I treat it and test it in my yard. It seems like the process of packing it damages the waterproofing. It's about 8 years old and I use it about 6 times a year, for 2-3 days at a time. My trips usually include a week in glacier conditions and several back packing trips. I've taken to bringing a plastic tarp with me to cover the tent which is ridiculous. I've used Teck Wick, Scotch Guard, Seam Seal and some other products over the years but it always leaks after a hard rain. Should I just buy a new one? Do fly's wear out making them impossible to waterproof? Does a product like Never Wet work on something that gets folded up?
