Frequently Asked Questions
 
Which side should I face outward — black or silver?
The silver side outward helps reflect heat and keep the covered area cooler, while the black side offers better UV wear in certain conditions.
 
How do I anchor the tarp in windy areas?
Use sturdy ropes or straps through the brass grommets to anchor corners and edges. Retension after storms to prevent flapping or loosening.
 
Is this tarp strong enough for extended use?
Yes — 12 mil thickness and woven PE construction give it significant durability and resistance to tearing under typical farm conditions.
 
Can I use this for organic hay?
Absolutely — the Dry Top tarp is OMRI-listed and safe for operations managing organic forage or livestock feed.
