Waterproofing.

Recently I got soaked to the bone on a birding trip and whilst my scope and bins were waterproof I was not pleased to have a wet stay-on-case.

So, I resolved to do something about it. I thought about Fablon spray but this is pricey. Looking in a shoe shop I saw a smaller can for three pounds and fifty pence, and tried it on my LCE Stay-on-Case and now the water runs off like water off a duck's back!

I hope this is useful to anyone else out there with covers or binocular cases that are not waterproof.

This looks useful. What is this stuff called?

'Protector' from Clark's but FHWillis do one of their own in a slightly smaller can for three pounds.
