[MR] Re-treating a canvas pavilion [signed]

[Steinfeld, Henry S CIV NAVAIR PMA-209T&E/AIR 1.6.3]

upon the advice of others I have used aqua-tite (http://www.beaconfabric.com/vindex.html?cat78.htm) they swear by it and it was applied with a garden sprayer.  In this heat it will dry is seconds!

Panther as this stuff called Canvak. I was thinking about using it on my 
tent, but have not got around to do it yet. Too HOT! Wondering if that 
would help.
