damaged canvas
is
mildew,
which
is
the
result of storing your unit
for any short period
of
time

a
damp

This
is
even more important
in
coastal states which have
a
damp

tent fabric is a strong, durable three-layer
polypropylene laminate which resists common
stains,
soil,
mildew
and
rot. When soiling does occur, the problem can usually be
corrected
by the following procedures:
Light brushing with a
soft
rag
will
remove most dirt.
For persistent soils:
1.
Wet
soiled fabric with water;
2.
Wash
with
non-detergent Ivory soap, work into
a
lather and
with
a
sponge, lightly work
the
lather
into the soiled area;
3.
Rinse
thoroughly
with copius
amounts
of water to remove
all
residue soap. Residual soap can cause fabric Ieakage.
4.
Air dry completely.
If
slight fabric
leaking
persists
due
to presence of residual soap, the
area
may
be treated with
water
repellent
such as
3M
Scotch
Guard
Fabric Protector.
The
above
procedure may
also
be
used
to
correct spot fabric leaking
caused
by
accidental contact with insect repellents
and
sprays.
Products
containing surfactants,
eg.
insect repellents,
suntan
03s
cart
cause
a
loss
of
water
repdency.
This
can
easiiy
be
somected
by
following
the
washing
instructions
outlined
above.
CAUTION:
Always
be
sure
the
canvas
is
completely
dry
hfwe
storing.
