Result:
3a) water penetrates seams on many and some set (the longer it rains all the more). It runs down the roof poles and dropping tables and upholstered fully. I was very annoyed the end of 2014, so there was a manure the old roof does not! Never!
3b) For the 2015 season I was prepared (... or so I thought).
-> April impregnation emulsion concerned. The roof 2x as specified molded / treats! Result: First rain and it drips again possibly 30% vinous than before ... but grooooßer crap! Medium was for cotton polyester fabric, polyester is apparently not suitable for 100%.
-> Early May: ... now the big stick: 2x 1 pötchen seam sealing applied (interior & exterior). Then 2x 1L can "Nachimprägnier means" processed (for cotton polyester fabric, acrylic, aluminum fabric) (solvent was fierce!). 2x the roof properly steeped (inside / outside). Then the first rain ... the seams remained now to 95% dense but after about 20 minutes. is the roof in some places wet, later it then drips here and there but by. Ok, is already 70% better than before, but still did not stop sealing! Unbelievable!
-> End of May: ... search for hours for another impregnating agent (eg silicon-based?). But for Polyester far not found anything suitable. Either the means "unsuitable" or there is no statement this ...
-> But one thing is certain, the next test, the means inzw expensive than the replacement roof itself.!
PS1: I had 2014 Gautzsch written to and never received an answer.
PS2: Another manufacturer who does not understand that the customer would pay 30 or 50 euros more if it the quality is right and you all that crap and frustration could save yourself up! But no, it is explained, from which you just can not expect the ... (It's not a bug, it's a feature!) To "Sunshield".
