New to this message board game so apologies if covered in a previous topic.

Can anyone out there help. I need to waterproof my roof panels and rear section, it soaks through on rainy days and has made the side bits (techinal term) mouldy. What product should I be using and where can it be purchsed.

Thanks in advance.

FABSIL - any camping shop, Millets etc. easy to apply and very successful.

There is also Renovo(sp?) but Im sure I recall someone here saying Thompsons Waterseal for canvass was better than the other two products, can anyone comment?

Renovo do, do a water proofer but I have tried it and would reccomend staying away from it. The recolouring agent and shampoo are top products but the water proofer is a bit, umm not good.

Not tried Fabsil but people speak very highly of it.

I would reccomend Thompsons Water seal for Brickwork and Canvas. Get the standard type as it is the one useable for Canvas. The Ultra version isn't. Fantastic stuff. £6 for quater of a gallon. I have applied it again recently and cannot reccomend it enough.

Wow!!! Thanks for the quick response. A trip to Focus at the weekend then. There was me thinking It'd cost me a fortune for some specialised product.
