Our are roof canvasses are, by definition, reproductions and are not genuine Volkswagen/Westfalia products. NONE of our roof canvasses claim to be 100% waterproof.
And none of our roof canvasses are 100% waterproof.
To counteract this and seal the tent fabric as effectively as possible, we recommend treating all seams from the inside, for example, with Gear Aid Seamgrip.
Furthermore, we recommend spraying the entire fabric from the outside with a waterproofing agent. The external treatment must be repeated occasionally to refresh the protection.
In the event of a thunderstorm, we advise you to close your roof.
Top quality canvas, made from a very luminous 100% cotton fabric with three windows, allowing a great amount of light inside.
Beige, with 3 windows and mosquito nets.
The canvas is treated with a combination of a silicon based softener and PVA to ensure a water repellent surface (water slips without penetrating) while letting the fabric breathe from the inside. All dyes are free of formaldehyde and AZO groups.
The fabric has a high tear resistance, with additional reinforcements on the usually fragile spots.
The TEX Zippers employed are made from POM plastic under OEKO-TEX 100 standards, specially designed to facilitate their passage in tight corners.
Mosquito nets are white, made from new generation materials, highly tear-resistant and also water repellent.
BEWARE:
Before removing the existing roof canvas, and before the installation of the new canvas, please verify that the measurements between the two are rigorously identical. Despite the information given on our website, there is always the possibility that your canvas or your roof does not correspond to the year or model indicated.
No credit will be issued for canvasses that have been either totally or partially installed.
Replacing the canvas is no easy task. The operation requires the technical skills of an upholsterer. Additionally, you will need to remove the roof. No instructions included. We advise you to have it installed by a professional.
Do not forget to also change your roof seals with the SKR122 kit.
