I need to get the canvas washed or cleaned, then I will be waterproofing with Thompsons.

Does any knwo where/how I can get the canvas cleaned?

The Canvas comes an one, trailer tent & awning together, so can't separate them...

 

Thanks,

ConwayCrown

Hi

 

we have just done our frame tent, we cleaned it with fabsil universal cleaner  then reproofed with fabsil. It took us about 6 hours to do the whole tent but in weather like this it should take about 4 to 5 hours.

 

Used it over the spring bank holidays and it had reproofed brilliantly

 

 

cheers

How long do you have to leave the tent erected before the Fabsil is fully dry? I know it will depend on the weather, but for an average overcast but dry British summer or autumn day? Should it be left up overnight?
