CARE FOR YOUR WESTDUBS ROOF AND CANVAS

 

In order to enjoy many years of use from your pop top we advise you to read these brief notes.

 

Your canvas can be cleaned with warm soapy water.

 

Always apply the elastic straps to keep canvas away from scissor hinges, not doing this will cause chaffing damage.

 

Always apply even pressure when pulling roof down and ensure you have adequate tension on the securing straps when down.

 

We advise treating all seams on your roof canvas with Fabsil sealer to ensure water resistance. Treat your canvas every 6 months.

 

Lightly oil scissor hinges annually and check tightness of all fittings for any movement.

 

When washing your van, try to avoid knocking the rubber strip at the front as this may displace it causing water and wind ingress. On your regular van wash don’t forget to wax the roof to minimise the risk of dull paintwork.

 

In order to maintain the glossy shine of your new pop top roof, we advise you use a good cutting compound such as G3 with a soft mop followed by a good polish and wax. This should be done every 6 months.

 

Westdubs recommends that the pop top roof is kept closed in torrential rain and strong winds to avoid any damage.
