I didn't know that 303 had a fabric protector. Thanks for the tip!

Agree with the 303 Fabric Protectant. I applied it to my biminis and the water beaded and rolled off.

In Destin the other week, a Great Blue Heron thought it would rest on top of my canvas and took a Great White Dump on the black canvas. Through laughing his ass off, my buddy told me what just happened.

Everything came off with a hard rinsing with the hose on the dock.

True story. Good product.
