Nope. Silnylon is very inert stuff. The silicone doesn't allow dyes, or paint...or anything else, to get to the fibers.

You got that right! How would you possiblly paint a lubricant? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />Silly kone is some slippery stuff. What you could do is find some camo ripstop and coat it after you finish your design. First erect your finished design taught. Mix Dow clear window caulk/sealant with some oderless mineral sprits to the consistancy of surup. Using a squeege ( I used a flexible putty squeege), pour some of the material on the upperside and spread it around to cover a section at a time. Doing my cat cut tarp, I started at the ridge line and worked my way down. Try to maintain an even coat. This is the tricky part. It is very hard to coat it totally evenly because as some of it dries as you are working new material into areas that have been previously coated. But the good news is that if you strive for even and thin consistancy it will repel water and hold up after repeated folding and stuffing etc.
