waterproofing boat cover

[carrotsnapper]

I have two covers for my boat. One is a storage cover and the other is a travel cover. Both are made of canvas. I have noticed that where the water puddles when it rains, the water soaks through both covers. The covers are a few years old. Question, can they be re-waterproofed? What is a good product for it? I did a search and couldn't find an answer even though I do remember reading something about this recently. Typically, I have both covers on at the same time, as the storage cover covers more of the boat, and I always leave the travel cover on.

I waterproof mine with Camp Dry. I get it at wally world in the shoe department. Has silicon in it, and I do it once a year, usually takes 2 cans.

I've used the Star Brite waterproofer annually on mine. Works well either in a sparay bottle or lawn type sprayer. I use about a gallon to do my cover, but your usage will really depend on the size of your boat and cover. <br /><br />
