My bimini has seen better days (see bonehead moves) but I was curious what people used to A). Waterproof it and B). UV protect it. Any suggestions? |

I was looking into that too. 303 has a product, I ordered the free sample kit. http://www.303products.com/index.htm |

The 303 Fabric Guard works as well as they claim and is recommended by Sunbrella. Don't even bother with a sample - just go ahead and order it. I was surprised that my factory fresh canvas had a few leaky spots when the new boat arrived. One application of the 303 was all it took. |

+1 on the 303. It's one of the best products out there for sunbrella. |

Also, you can get 303 stuff by the gallon on ebay. I get one spray bottle for each product and then refill it from the gallons. |

Ok, I am sold on the 303. I have used their UV Cleaner and protectant on the isenglass and it's great. How much would I need to do my bimini top and side curtain (fabric portion) |

You should be fine with one spray bottle. I bought two and I haven't used up one just yet. The key is to put it on lightly, but multiple coats. |

I agree the 303 works great and one bottle is plenty; I bought two and never opened the second. |
