Spray to help snow slide off a tent?

[DonV]

Does anyone know of a spray that can help snow slide off a tent? My Hilleberg Atko collects wet snow.....................

have you tried PAM?

Nikwax tent and gear is probably what you're looking for

I was just looking at that for waterproofing! Anything else?

303 aerospace protectant. It will protect from UV damage and make it more slick at the same time.

Whack it with your hand from the inside. What we always did.

Give your usual fire tender at Tylenol pm with his Pendleton’s. You’ll be up every few hours to stoke the fire and bang the snow off…

Thanks!

FYI in AK solo on a fly in caribou hunt the wet snow was coming down hard and fast. It collapsed the bottom of my tent. I had to set an alarm for every 10 minutes, all night, so I could whack my tent constantly which gave me a cold shower. That was not a good night's rest for hunting AK.

I think this stuff would help, but never tried it for this purpose
