Q: How do Iset-up myhub shelter?
A: Go to www.clamcorp.comto watch an instructional video on the proper & simplest way to set-up and take-down a
hub style shelter.
Q: Ican see pin holes in my fabric:
A: There are a few explanations as to whythose pin holesexist.
Simplythe color and/or black-out coatingbeingworn off the fabric due exposure in the elements and wear
due to friction.
Ice Armor fabric is a woven material and these pin holes are parts of the thread that the coatingdid not
attach to. Either waythis has no effect on the function of the fabric and is simply an appearance issue.
Q: There are cracks on the inside finish of the fabric:
A: This is normal, when you fold up your shelter, lines develop in the fabric.The inside coating may even appear to be
peeling. This is normal and will not affect the overall function of the ice house.
Q: Will my Fish House leakbecause Ican see pin holes in the fabric?
A: Quite the opposite, as you heat your house and the snow and ice begin to melt, the vapors can better escape the
shelter through an uncoatedfabric. Whenit snows or rains, the water molecules are larger than the vapor molecules
and cannot pass through thefabric and into the house.
Q: Are patch kits available for my Fish Trap and Clamshelter?
A: Patch kits are available theycan be purchased online www.clamcorp.com.
Q: How do Iapplythe patch material?
A: When applyinga patch it works best to spray some adhesive (we recommend using 3M #77 or 3M #90 spray
adhesive) on to both surfaces; the part of the tent where the patch is going to be applied and the patch itself. Wait
until the adhesive begins to dry and becomes tacky, then place the patch on the tent, and theywill sticktogether.
Q: Is there anythingcan be put on outside of the tent to prevent water fromcomingthrough, when we are usingit? A:

campingtents or boots. (Camp Dry would be an example of this type of product).These products will not damage
your tent in anyway.
