I'm sorry, but how do I know what the thickness is? Can you explain what the 70 means, please?
A shopper
on Jan 21, 2017
BEST ANSWER: Denier is a unit of measurement that describes the thickness of the threads or filaments used in the fabric. Generally, the higher the denier, the thicker and more durable the fabric. Compared to other nylon fabrics with deniers such as 210, 420, or 1000, 70 denier ripstop is lightweight. Despite being thin, ripstop is still a durable fabric. We suggest ordering a sample if you want to see the thickness.

Black 70 Denier FR/UV Nylon Ripstop Fabric is water repellent, but is it water proof?
A shopper
on Sep 28, 2016
BEST ANSWER: We cannot guarantee a fabric to be waterproof if it is labeled as water repellent. You could try adding a treatment like Never Wet to it to add to the water repellency, but please be aware that it may affect the look and feel of the fabric.
Rust-Oleum Never Wet Multi-Surface Frosted Clear
Rust-Oleum NeverWet Outdoor Fabric Water Repellent

Looking for durable black fabric to create an inside pocket for my Gortex Raincoat. Will mostly use it for easy access to my iPhone & wallet. Would this be a good fabric or do you recommend something else?
A shopper
on Oct 26, 2019
BEST ANSWER: I used the fabric for a liner for our Fire Department SCBA masks. It is **tough** so should last a very long time. It has a nice drape and hand and should be perfect for a durable inside pocket for the use you describe. Easy to sew on a home machine (I used my commercial machine).

Would this work as a car soft top? If not what would you recommend instead?
I would not use this as a car soft top. It seems far too light and flimsy for that purpose. But I've never made a car top, so don't really have a recommendation.

Is this blackout? If I was to add the white 70 denier nylon ripstop as a layer on top of it, do you think it would be close to blackout?
A shopper
on Nov 2, 2017
BEST ANSWER: When I hold this fabric up to a bright light I can dimly see the light, so I would call it dark, not blackout. More than one layer would help.
