Anyone have any solutions for removing tree sap and other stains from the canvas ends of a popup. My buddy is looking to purchase a 1996 Dutchmen 1204 and the folks that had it set it up under a cottonwood tree that dropped sap and leaves onto the canvas. He will most likely purchase this unit as it seems like a good deal and is well maintained, but would like to clean it up a little. Any ideas?

I believe our dealership told us to use something gentle on the canvas like WOOLITE. I was going to pull out our manuals to look to see if I could make sure but its been raining for the past 3 days here and the manuals are in the pop-up.

There is a paint made by I think Glidden that is just for Canvas. Covers all types of tree sap marks etc, Waterproofs at the same time. Could be like Rezdan ( Only in Canada you say ?? )
We buy it from a local boat dealer here . Perhaps you should check with your local marine store.

We love it so much that we have rebuilt it.
