Can I use this on a hammock?
⚠️ Not recommended.
While this gel is safe for synthetic and fabric surfaces, it’s formulated specifically for footwear materials. Hammocks—especially lightweight nylon or parachute silk types—may not rinse cleanly or could become tacky. For cleaning hammocks, use a mild detergent or brush off debris using a dry brush.
