Refreshing Canvas?

Unread post by on-to-berlin » April 27th, 2016, 3:31 pm

Hello Everyone!

I was wondering if there is a way to refresh old original canvas seats? Is there a good source in Europe where I can get paint/waterproving it again?

OTB.... have a look at:- http://www.warpaint.co.uk/

I haven't used it so you'll need to check it out/ask for a sample etc.

This stuff:

Don't see why you couldn't order this with delivery to Europe. Its not tinted green like the original version but it will make your canvas feel and smell like it did when it was new.

They won't ship internationally, unfortunately.

O.K great! But Canvak is not available in Germany or Europe. All the links are US only.

And warpaint in th UK does not respond to Emails.

So I guess I have to look further.
