Lou,I don't know if you've treated that canvas yet. I've used 303 Fabric Guard and water repellent on the Z top and t it works great...water beads right up and rolls off.

I will. I am aware of that product. The manual says to treat the canvas after the second season. The thread in the canvas needs a season to swell before you treat it.
