Bostik make a glue remover for their products. I'd try that. Or ask in a hardware shop, ours in town has tonnes of different solvents for removing stuff.

Try petrol, dab it on with a clean rag. Dumb addition don't smoke or use in enclosed spaces

Hi.
before I used anything to harsh I would strongly recommend just leaving it in water for 24hrs at least. Preferably warm.

thanks for everyone's advise. don't want to try hard abrasives as for soaking in water I would love to try it but I don't want the camper canvas all soaked as I would have to leave it open all night, but thanks very much anyway
