Waterproof tarps are waterproof covers that will offer water protection against rain and other possible water damage. A tarp rain cover is a multipurpose item that can serve as a quality cover-up even for applications where the threat of rain is not present.
Waterproof tarps have been around for hundreds of years. They were originally used by sailors to protect goods from sea spray en route. With time, many new tarp materials flooded the market, and today you can purchase a variety of heavy-duty waterproof tarp covers.
Are All Tarps Waterproof?
Most tarps offer some resistance to water; however, it is important to know the amount of water the tarp will be exposed to. Outdoor applications may require heavy duty waterproof tarps, to be an effective tarp rain cover, while items that are indoor or can tolerate limited water exposure may not require tarps specified as waterproof tarps.
Tarps that are classified as waterproof tarps are coated with a waterproof layer to keep it 100% anti-absorbent, and they can serve as tarp rain covers even in a pourdown. Tarps that are classified as water resistant tarps will prevent water from seeping in due to their fabric construction, yet they are not guaranteed for excessive water exposure.
