For tiny pinholes I would probably use seam sealer and that should be fine.
Alternatively tenatious tape is good, we've got some on the kitchen roof of our Cabanon where hubby "flamed" it and put tiny holes and it seems fine.

Yep I would say that Tenacious Tape is best - it is long lasting and unnoticeable because it is clear.

Storm seal is brilliant ,its a flexible glue that you dab onto pin holes & it seals them like a rubber skin.
Get it here click Spares and Repairs & then Tent spares and Repairs. Its at the top.

Curious as to why you ask this? Are you thinking that tiny bits of hot ash may have burned holes in the tent, or is there another reason?
Cheers
