Cleaning canvas cockpit cover tips.

[Rockfish]

Boat sits outside all winter and the canvas gets ugly with dirt and even green stuff. Looking for some tips/ideas for cleaning it that won’t mess up its ability to repel water.

Not a master with canvas but pink solution, folex, magic erasers, simonize dryclean, wd40 and fluid film are all the products that you will need to clean and protect anything. I would go with the folex or pink solution but I have no idea what it would do to the ability to repel water.

You refer to a canvas top. Is it canvas? Depending what the top is, cleaning products and processes vary.
