If you are worried about water, here are a couple of tips to make your OutBack Pack resistant to moisture.
Make your OutBack Pack water resistant
Push the lock tabs back through the lock tab slots and lay the OutBack Pack on a flat surface. Apply a medium coat of paste wax (just like waxing your car) only do not buff it off. Coat both the front, back and all edges. This should take about 10 minutes. Another option is to spray a light to medium coat of acrylic clear coat on all sides (in a ventilated area). When dry re-assemble. Both of these methods are proven to work.
