I bought a big can of Fabsil (like below)and put it in a hand garden water sprayer.If doing this "wet"the canvas with it as you spray it on.You need a dry day for doing this as it evaporates also, the fumes are strong so do it outside.

Many thanks just found it on good old ebay and the spray idea looks to be a great way to do it. All we need now is a dry day lol fingers crossed on that happening!

We used fabsil too - I sprayed it on too but I had the use of a paint shop back then.

I still have some but a good pasting brush would do the trick if you did not fancy spraying it on.

But as OP's have said - you need a dry day.
