THERE'S now help at hand for caravanners who are sick and tired of their dowdy awnings. A Sydney-based company has introduced a new product to the market which will bring awnings and other canvas products back to life. "The Leatherique canvas dye will re-colour or change the colour and re-waterproof at the same time," Permanent Painted Coatings' Rob Harrington-Johnson told Caravanning News. All you need do is wash with a mild soap water, dry and sponge on the the dye. One litre of Leatherique costing about $90 will generally cover 6ft x 6ft area with approximately two coats.
