Default Bimini Waterproofing

Good evening,
I have an old bimini with unknown fabric, which leaks badly. Looking for feedback on fabric protectant, specifically 303 Fabric Guard and Star Bright Waterproofing with PTEF.
Any others people have good luck with?
Thanks,
Jon Brush

I use the 303, but not in the spray bottle. Get someone to split a gallon with you and paint it on with a brush. EBay is your friend.

Buy a jug of the Starbrite stuff. Go To harbor freight and buy their cheap HVLP spray gun and spray away. Works real good lasts about 15 months.

My top was just refurbished for my restore and they used some new expensive space age material that is guaranteed never to leak or stretch. I guess we'll see how it goes....

I have no idea but I'll ask when I pick it up next week. The owner of the shop had just did his boat with it so I figured why not.

I used the 303 Fabric Guard after reading a product test - sorry I don't remember the site. The most important thing is clean really well before putting the product on.
