canvas dye-ing

[ScottM]

Alan,
You may be able to dye it and then spray with waterproofing (silicone?) just to get you through till you can spring for the new top. The bimini on my dad's Sceptre ocassionally leaks and he sprays it with some type of silicone that does the trick. Certainly temporary, but it works and since the current top isn't torn or faded, he's not ready to replace it just yet.
