Westfalia roof canvas repair

  1. Hi

    After a few days away last week when we slept through some strong onshore winds I now have a tear in the roof canvas near the front support hinge. Does anyone know where I can get repair patches from , as a whole new canvas is too much at the moment ?

    (Also, what are the best products to waterproof it ?)

  2. I've used some clear Drysuit repair patches for mine, super strong and water proof too.

    You can pick them up in EBay cheap enough.

    Hope this helps a bit!

    're the waterproofing, we used Fabsil spray on our Westy canvas. I know it's canvas, so in theory should only need weathering for the canvas fibres to become watertight, but in practice we got a bit of water ingress, the Fabsil sorted that.
