May I use it as a waterproof tarp over an outdoor bed?

I would not recommend using this blanket as a waterproof tarp. A tent or tarp over the bed may be the best option. Moisture does bead and roll off the blanket. And the blanket is quite warm for colder temps. Size may be an issue too. I am not sure what an outdoor bed is, so I feel I am not qualified to answer this question.

It seems like a lot of money to spend to use as a tarp. I do not think it would survive if used that way. It works great as a blanket at outdoor events when it is raining, but those events are usually only a few hours long. It is more of a blanket, which happens to be waterproof, than a tarp. Just my opinion.

Yes it can though it may weather faster and idk how it would do in rain. If you do I would use a giant tarp to put over it when done

you absolutely could. I would make sure that you cover it well though. Do not leave it uncovered as it would not last well for the purpose you want it to.

You could, if you have a bin/bucket large enough to soak it in. I suppose you could water it down and turn it into a spray and then spray it over the tent when it is up. I used this product on the rain cover for my tent by soaking it in a large plastic bin (probably unnecessary measure as it is lined with plastic). If you wanted to waterproof your tent I'd think it would be easier to get the spray version of this product. I personally haven't used it so I can't speak to how well it works. This product worked well for waterproofing 2 rain jackets, 1 soft shell, 2 full brim field hats, some shorts (worked for like 3 washes on the shorts, but I didn't give them full treatment) and one rain cover for my tent. Hope this helps

I don't see why not. It would be covered by sunbrella or other material that was for the outdoor area...it is an insert...not to be used by itself.

I would not leave this outside or expose it to water/high moisture conditions. I am not sure but would be surprised if it had any weatherproof indications.

I wouldn't recommend it. It's not made of anything tough enough to withstand water or weather- and flattens very quickly. We've already added two blankets to our Pit's bed.

It could be used to wrap an outside pipe, but only if you have the plug-in to the outlet sheltered, it could be used with an extension cord that was considered waterproof.

I have not used it outside, I don't think you can't use it outside unless it's covered from the rain

Well as I have washed mine plenty of times, and no it is of no use outside. Unless you have an overhang to protect it from the rain.

No this is just for weatherproofing something like a tent or some other camping things. So it's basically for fabric.

If on dry ground it should be fine. If ground is damp, then you need a tarp

You could but just like any other fabric it will eventually ruin in the weather. Overall it's pretty durable though

I have never tested the blanket to see if it is waterproof but my best guess is no. I use this in my hammock to augment a wool blanket and / or sleeping bag depending on the air temp. It is basically an insulated nylon blanket that I liked so much I bought another one. BTW...this is not really big enough to serve as a bivy anyway...too small unless for a child.

I would not recommend using this as an outdoor tent. It is not weather proof and has vinyl material.

It can be used outdoors as long as you protect it from direct exposure to rain, snow, etc. I have used one successfully outdoors mounted under the overhang on a house.

I don't know for absolute certainty but I would say no; it's not strong enough. I would use Tyvek house wrap or a blue tarp.
