Care of Maxi-Grip

Anchor Industries recommends the use of 303 Aerospace
Protectant for the care and maintenance of your Maxi-grip zipper
closure system.

Follow these simple Instructions:

• Cover Maxi-grip surface completely with 303 Aerospace

Protectant.

• Remove any and all excess with a clean cloth - wipe dry.

Proper application creates a nice fi nish that repels soiling and
stains.

Alternative product: Dow Corning® HV 495 EMULSION

Caution: When folding tent, take care that Maxi-Grip is not in a
severe kink.

Care of Maxi-Grip after Washing Tent

After each and every Tent washing, follow these instructions:

• Completely rinse with plain water and wipe with sponge to remove any detergent residue. This step is critical to the

effective functionality of Maxi-Grip.

• Allow to thoroughly dry.

• Apply 303 Aerospace Protectant as noted on previous page under “Care of Maxi-Grip.”

Problem Checklist

• Too many electrical cables inside the lace fl aps may put tension on Maxi-grip. There should be NO tension on Maxi-Grip.

• Contaminants of any sort may inhibit the functionality of the Maxi-Grip. Maxi-Grip must be clean and protected to work

properly. Check condition of Maxi-Grip periodically. See Care of “Maxi-Grip”

• Tent Installation may have a bearing on how Maxi-Grip functions. Tent must be properly installed and tensioned. Read

tent installations thoroughly

• Failure or separation of the Maxi-Grip may be due to improper closing during installation. The Maxi-Grip must be properly

sealed in order for it to perform. If separation occurs, repeat Step 2 of the Instructions.
