CANVAS CLEANING
Q: Dear Boat Doc, what is the best way to clean my canvas Bimini top fabric? Michael Johns Lewes, Delaware
A: Brush off loose dirt and fully wet the canvas. Using a medium-softbristle brush, scrub with mild soap and water, making sure the soapy water has saturated the fabric. General-purpose boat soap, Woolite or Simple Green will work fine. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air-dry before rolling up, folding or covering.
