perentie canvas top cleaning

G'Day Mate.
100% lanolin can be picked up pretty much anywhere. I got mine from autobarn.
If you can't find any then grab a sheep and rub it over the car ;)

Give each panel a light spray and a rub in.
Work your way around the car.
When finished with the first run, dry buff it with a clean rag.
Won't be shiny, but it will lift the finish up like new!
You will need to reapply in a couple of months if left in the weather.
If you have a hardtop, don't do the roof. It'll run smears down your windscreen.

thanks Dave but I will give the sheep a miss my misses brought one home in the back of the kingswood a few years back and I had a hell of a time trying to get rid of the smell!
Thanks for the advice:D

Hey Team,


The manufacturer of the canvas for the perente recommended I use pure soap and warm water. After doing my roof over the cabin the canvas faded quite a bit. For the main area I did all the areas but the black sections of the camo. Worked quite well and got quite a bit of the "red dust" out. Once dry I applied Water Guard extreme with the UV protection. The canvas darkened which gave it a newer look. As a result the water beads off the canvas fantastically and there is no wetting out, not to mention no water ever comes though the canvas now.



Here's the link for that product for those interested
Water-Guard Extreme Aerosol 300g


Hope this is helpful
Edit: This product also kills the Mildew, Mould and protects UV damage ie fading

Cheers, Andrew

yes the soap worked well on mine but I just painted on the dry seal afterwards and it has done a good job. by the way the lanolin works a treat thanks Dave.
