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

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

Good point but Aqua-tite is formulated for canvas and did not adversely affect the other person's pavilion.  I know that it can be received in the mail fairly quickly as well.  I suppose if you feel lucky, you could set up your pavilion and then apply it on site with the sprayer.  As long as you have a day to dry you will likely be ok.

Speaking of heat...

Having had an experience with a previous rewaterproofing effort that
resulted in canvas that did NOT breathe at all (which led to 120
degree tent at pennsic...ewww...), what is the effect of these
waterproofing treatments on the canvas's breathability?
