A tent is basically necessary for every hike of more than one day. Like sleeping bags, as long as you pay attention to maintenance, tents are not washed every time you travel. However, it does not mean that the tent does not need to be washed. When you have been to deserts or wet grasslands, the tent will inevitably become dirty. At this time, it is necessary to wash it in time. As for the tent, I already have some experience in using it, so I don’t mention the embarrassment of carefully studying its use on the floor of the living room at home when I first bought it. Just scrubbing, it took a lot of detours.
Because the outer waterproof fabric is not very wear-resistant, and the maintenance of its waterproofness lies in the usual maintenance, so you must pay attention to the following aspects when scrubbing: wash with water (do not wash), especially dirty places can be wiped with a cloth (thousands) Do not use hard stuff such as brushes, which will damage the waterproofness of the outer layer). After scrubbing, it must be dried before it can be put away (mold spots may appear if it is not dried).
The gauze-like inner tent is white, not resistant to dirt and not easy to wash. The tent can be washed with detergent such as washing powder, but it must be rinsed clean. If you do not want to have a big musty smell during the next trip, then it must be completely Let dry and put on camphor essence before putting it away.
