Canvas Top

Post by fiwi463pfa » Mon May 16, 2022 8:53 am

Hi, is it possible to paint an MB canvas top that has turned pale by the sun, or is that not worth the effort? :?: :?:

I believe there are canvas treatment products out there to waterproof or rewaterproof canvas. Depending on the product it can darken the canvas.

I got an extra possible suggestion :
AutoGlym for Rooftops.
It's also a cleaner and rewaterproof set.
