The canopy to the campavan i just bought is in terrable condition with mould,ihave gurneyed off and dried it out but still alot of stains still remain ,is there some thing i can paint it with to improve and protect it.


I have a friend of mine that owns a 76' vw westy and we replaced the poptop canvas on it. The first thing you can do to help out protection against mold and moisture is buy some scotch guard the kind that dupont makes and spray it down completly. It will repel against the rain and it has a UV protectant in it as well to help against fading.

What is a good product to use to water-proof a canvas EZ-Up canopy and not turn it yellow in the sun?

We use this canopy for our business. It is supposed to be water-resistant already but continues to leak on our products. EZ-Up has very poor customer service and is not helpful warning that any products used will void the warrenty. However they will not replace it either. Grrr. Any ideas?

Looking for a pattern to sew a new canvas canopy for my 10 X 10 gazebo.?

It's getting too hard to find replacements and the metal on the newer ones is to light so if I could get a pattern to make a new 2 tiered top, I would be set for the summer.


I like bushmas...'s answer if you want a copy of what you have now, but it sounds like you want something slightly different. Can you post photos of what you have and what you want on photobucket, or something?
I could probably write you a formula, but I need to know exactly what you want and what dimensions you are working with. Is it actually a square gazebo as it sounds, or is it a hexagonal or octagonal gazebo, or another shape?
Is it taller in the center and slopes downward to the sides, like a roof? If so, how tall does the canopy have to be? (ex: "4 feet total height" or "walls are 8 ft. high but I want it 10 ft. high at the center.)
If you want 2 tiers, is the bottom tier open in the center so that you can see both tiers from underneath, or not?
What kind of support structure do you plan for the canopy to sit on?
When you talk about "the metal" are you referring to the circular grommets that are used to tie or hook the canopy in place, or other metal?
You are welcome to e-mail me if you would like.
