Thread: Canvas Canopy Care

    Canvas Canopy Care

    I would like some thoughts on how to care for the new canopy canvas on the boat.

    I tried some stuff on the old canopy that you had to paint on with a brush and found it made the canvas stiff as a board.

    Is there something that will leave the canvas flexible yet still waterproof.

    Canvas should be pretty waterproof without treatment after an initial spray of water which will shrink it a bit.

    I use scotchguard. Its a spray made by 3M. Makes it a lot easier to clean as dirt doesn't stick. It needs to be re applied every couple of years.

    I sprayed me 8 year old canopy with 3 cans of silicone spray.
    It looks nice! and easy to clean, but it still ain't water proof.
