To help maximise the durability and life of your Supaproof 8 Canvas, please follow the following instructions thoroughly – this will allow you to enjoy many years of excellent service and satisfaction from your canvas.

• Prior to using your Supaproof 8 canvas we recommend that you thoroughly wet your canvas with a domestic hose and let it dry fully in the sun. This is necessary to allow the fabric to settle after transport and packaging. Failure to do this may cause leakage in initial exposure to rain.

• Store, pack or roll up only when clean and dry.

• To remove dirt, brush dry fabric with soft brush. An occasional hosing may remove dust and some ingrained dirt.

• Never scrub the fabric.

• Do not expose to petrol or oil.

• Immediately remove deposits of organic matter (such as soil, grass cuttings, leaf litter, bird droppings, vehicle exhaust, pollutants,
  etc)

• Remove any mildew, as it appears, first by brushing, then by treating with diluted chlorine bleach (typically 1 part White King to 4
  parts water to achieve 1% available chlorine) Allow to dry in full sun, then hose well to remove any residue. • Do not use strong bleaches such as ‘pool chlorine’.

• Do not use soaps, detergents, solvents, or other liquid cleaners.

• Exposure to the elements and excessive cleaning may affect the water proofness and appearance of the canvas. Occasional rejuvenation of your canvas is recommended. Additional proofing may help re invigorate the canvas. Only use one type of proofing agent on your canvas.
