Care for tent

I have a North Face VE25 tent which I brought second. I noticed that the ground coating for the waterproofness which I believed was polyurethane is kind of sticky. Is there anyway of getting rid of the "sticky" thing?.

Spray a thin layer of Campdry Silicone on it and let it cure throughly. Mine was the same way and this fixed it.
