I have a couple of older canvas tents that I would like to keep alive.
I love them for winter camping when precipitation comes down as snow, but I would like to expand their use to the summer months.
The reality is that yesteryear's canvas never was that great keeping rain out and it is even worse now that it is old.
At least one of these tents has some kind of rubberized coating on the top. It works much better than the tents without the coating.
Of course, I have used high quality waterproofing on all the tents, but it really doesn't cut it in heavy rain.
I am thinking about putting some kind of rubberized paint or coating on the top of my other canvas tents.
Does anybody have any experience or knowledge they can share? Can anybody recommend a rubberized paint or coating?
