At the end of the month my boat has Spring Cleaning Day - and part of this will be to make the hood look as new as possible. It's navy canvas and in the five years from new has gone stiff and a bit green round the edges.

Last year I blasted it in situ with a pressure washer and that made a decent difference but I think it needs more. I aim to take the hood sections off completely and blast them - but should I scrub with algicide/patio cleaner too? I'd like to finish with a restorer/water repellent like the Renovo I used on my TVR.

Can anyone suggest suitable products please? Or will car products do it?
