Fall-Proof Your Patio: Get 20% OFF, Use Code: WELCOME20
Not every tarp needs to be the heaviest thing on the shelf. This 12 oz vinyl tarp gives you the same 100% waterproof barrier as our heaviest fabric, in a build light enough to fold and carry alone — cut to your exact rectangle or square dimensions.
Choose it when the tarp comes on and off with the seasons, when the span is large enough that an 18 oz panel would need two people, or when the exposure isn't year-round. It works as a custom all weather vinyl tarp for general outdoor use, and the weight makes it a practical medium weight PVC tarp rectangle for anyone handling it solo.
Fully waterproof, not a lesser barrier
The PVC coating is impermeable at both weights — 12 oz gives up handling ease for coating weight, not water protection.
Built for repeated folding
The lighter coating creases and unfolds without the stiffness heavier fabrics develop over frequent handling.
Heat-welded, like every ZIPCovers tarp
No stitched seams, no needle holes in the waterproof barrier.

Tarp Shield is our medium duty vinyl — the fabric we recommend when the tarp comes on and off often.
410 gsm, 15 mil PVC-coated fabric. The same impermeable barrier and heat-welded seams as our heaviest vinyl, in a weight one person can manage without help.
Rustproof brass grommets at the four corners as standard, or spaced at approximately 24, 18, or 12 inches. Welded D-rings at 24 or 12 inches. Add 1.5" reinforced webbing around the perimeter if the tarp will be pulled tight or handled often.
As a 12 oz vinyl tarp custom cut, it strikes the balance between weight and handling that most orders actually need.
