You can try "Scotch Guard" spray,
 
Good Luck!

Subject: Problems with rip-stop porosity

I've made two identical parafoil stunters; one, made with ballon
rip-stop nylon, and the other with untreated (porous) rip-stop.
The kite made with ballon rip-stop flies perfectly, the one with
the porous rip-stop would make an excellent single-line kite, but
has absolutely no manouverability as a stunter. Slow and dull.
What can I apply to the untreated rip-stop to make it non-porous?
I'd be thankful for some ideas.
