We�re phasing out Amann Serabond and replacing it with Amann Outdoor-Pro. Everything you used Serabond for, Outdoor-Pro can handle - plus it prevents water from wicking through seam holes.

Outdoor-Pro delivers the same strength, durability, and color range as Serabond, but adds a PFAS‑free water‑repellent finish. This makes it the better choice for boat covers, tents, awnings, and coated outdoor fabrics.

If you�ve used Serabond before, Outdoor-Pro will feel identical in your machine, with better performance in extremely wet conditions.
