Project Farm: 14 Tarps Are Tested For One Year



One year of sunlight and wind and the results are VERY surprising! Brands: Harbor Freight, Rugged Rhino, Patiobay, CAMPMAC, Amazon Basics, Zuperia, Cartman, Foremost, Grizzly, and VEVOR.

Tarps compared for performance, both while new and after a year of sunlight and wind exposure. Tests include wind and UV resistance, grommet strength, waterproofness, and puncture resistance.

I watched it so you don't have to.

Campmac gets top two spots, but spendy.

Value for money is Rugged Rhino by a mile.
