Can you get seam sealant in an aerosol? I have some leaks and thought I'd get them sorted on the last trip with a brushed on seam sealer. Easiest time to do this is (I thought) when the tent was up. Gravity has obviously become a problem!

Yes because on the inside if you look closeley the seams are taped.They really should not rain in at all.

Whatever you do make sure the normal seam sealer has time to dry.You dont want to pack away your tent and have to unpeel it next time.Mine took a good day 9 till 5 to dry.
