Will it work to spray clothing with this and seal in a plastic bag for a few months? Do you have to spray every inch of an item, including inside?

I have sprayed Sla inside of storage container for winter bedding and heavy clothing items but I usually dry clean/wash before the next use. I do not spray these items directly even though it is a water based product and probably does not stain. My major use of Sla is spraying inside closets and floor coverings i.e., carpets and rugs.

Hi, it definitely is not a permanent seal! I guess it opens like any other sealed bag (not too difficult), that's once you get it to seal......

The bag is self sealing. We use one bag for a 400 sqft room and can apply it 3 times.

More complete waterproofing than sprays. It covers every area of the garment not just what you spray. No residue that I have seen in the washer or dryer. I have used it for the past few ski seasons to revive the DWR on my family's ski clothing with great success. The only comment I have on this is it works best on clothes that had a DWR finish originally. Use a different Gear Aid water-proofer if you are trying to add water-proofing to a garment or bag that was not water-proof when new.

I have kept it for two months and it worked. Depends on how good it is packed and the seal is in place. Don't take it out of the wrap until you plan using it. Keep in room temp. That should keep it for a couple of months at least if not more.

I believe it says to do it on the inside. I'm sure you could do it on the outside, but when I used it, I used the seal on the inside. It does work as advertised. I will say, I had to work a bit to get it off in the spring though. I think this year I am going to use this but I'm still going to use the plastic on the windows. I still felt the coldness, but it's probably because the windows in my apartment are just really old.

I found this to do Avery good job in sealing plastic bags. It is not like Zip lock bags but it does Avery good job of sealing the bags.

I have not tried spraying it directly on clothes. I do spray it in the closets.

It is permanent as long as it was sealed properly. However, it is not a perfect tool and I only use it to seal things temporarily. If the bag you are sealing is thin, it might also burn through and tear the bag.

I have 2oz size and used it on The Mat by Lululemon; it absorbs in very quickly, so it works nicely for a light spray down after class to keep funkiness away, but plan on continuing deep cleans-- in my experience, scented stuff tend to make the surface a little slippery, and bc The Mat is double thickness the spray bottle provided is not going to discharge enough to actually clean it.

Hi there, it won't go bad if you premix it and store. We would recommend a spray bottle, as that makes for easy application. Thanks for the question!

Unless these tubs had an airtight seal (which they don't-- just a normal plastic storage tub seal), moisture might be an issue. I'd try bagging the clothes tightly in the tubs. The vacuum bags where you suck out all the air and shrink a tall pile of clothes to a couple inches is probably your best bet. This should also take care of the bug issue. For short term storage of everyday clothing that doesn't require "archival level preservation", I'd recommend these tubs with the aforementioned vacuum sealed bags.

I used a spray that was ok for cotton, since I was spraying Converse, but YES. It is like getting extra mileage from the shoes. I do it for my kids' shoes, and the shoes last way longer than expected.

I have never sprayed this on fabric so I can't say for certain - but I suspect you should not spray your clothes with it. It is made up largely of essential oils and definitely leaves an oily residue wherever you spray it (it does dry up and has never stained the wood floor or tile where I've used it) that I doubt is good for clothing. I could certainly see it staining some fabrics.

I have used it twice inside. The first time was a small bathroom, I ripped out the toilet and sink stand and taped myself into the room, wearing a mask and goggles, and painted the whole room floor to ceiling. Didn't have to worry about spatter. The second time was in a hallway closet, I wasn't sure how good of an idea it was but I dreaded painting all the shelf corners by hand. I put about 4" of tape from the doorway out and taped plastic over the carpet and about 3'x3' outside the closet, and had very good results, no overspray. I would highly recommend familiarizing yourself by testing outside on some scrap wood with corners first though, so you are able to judge how thick to put the paint and how far it sprays. Two thin coats 10 minutes apart are WAY better and easier than one thick coat that starts running and dripping and ends up looking awful.

I wouldn't recommend it for that. It's not a sealant, it's a medium that makes acrylics compatible for clothing designs. You'd probably want something like Mod Podge.
