    Would this work on the sides of a campervan pop top roof ? What would you recommend to clean the canvas first .. there seem to be mould marks on a few areas of the canvas. No doubt this product could be sprayed on too .. it would be easier for large areas .. i think thanks !

    Hi I once tried spraying, never again I prefer to paint it on I’m sorry I can’t comment on the camper as I’ve never done one of those, I have done a gazebo in the garden and it worked on that material It’s best to clean before putting in Thanks 👍🏼

    Hi thanks for the reply regarding the fox 2 man I have the 2 man armo like this I waterproof it each year but this weekend been out and the outer skin has just leaked like its had nothing on do you think it's the age of the bivvi over 10 years old fabsil has always worked for me in the past it was the winter wrap that leaked might try it one more time with fabsil if it still leaks then look at the fox

    Hi I’m sorry I’ve never owned a Nash titan so I couldn’t comment safely,but, what sort of material is it, if it’s like this tracker v3 I’d feel ok to do it if it’s a different material then if it was me I’d just do a small section at the bottom of the bivvy let it dry and see how it is I always do them on the outside never on the inside Cheers

    Жыл бұрын

    Hi Mines usually mud I think ( don’t really check😂) I usually if bad just wash it with water depending how bad, bucket and sponge or hose pipe sponge or carefully pressure wash but not to close if pressure washer I think if it survives this year it may need a really good clean so I may have to look into it aswell but I’ll probally use a bit of fiary liquid to clean it then pressure wash it off but others may have better ideas Thanks tym

    Hi yes you can but personally I like to use the brush so I can put plenty on and rub it right into the seams I did try spraying once it was quicker but I didn’t feel it done as good a job and it went everywhere and used more so now stick to paining it on Cheers👍🏼
