Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi guys any of you cab owners used Fabsil to proof your tops. Got lots of cleaner, dye, just out of proofer don't want to buy a new kit. Thanks in advance Steve

POST 2Original post

I havent used Fabsil on the Porsche roof. But have used it on our airbeam awning - its brilliant stuff and didnt leave any marks, but is great at repelling the water.....So would imagine it would be fine on a Porsche roof, but definitely be good to hear from someone who has actually done it....

POST 4Original post

If you can't get fabsil have a look for Renovo ultra proofer

POST 5Original post

Steve I used Fabsil Gold on my 996 cab. It was brilliant. Easy to apply. Didn't leave the fabric tacky just well proofed. You might need to use more than one can. Clean your roof first then two coats of fabsil (or a third) until it beads beautifully and water just bounces off it. My son has just got a 320 convertible and I was straight out with the Fabsil. Paul

POST 7Original post

Fabsil Gold is the best proofer I've ever used. Have been using Fabsil on all the cabs we have had over the last 20 years.

POST 8Original post

A litre should do it but you might need a little more.

POST 9Original post

I'm about to get some for Mrs Goldstar's Boxster. Found this info For lightweight canvas materials, the coverage will be around 7-10sq metres per litre and For medium weight canvas it will be 5-7sq metres per litre. *Top Tip* As a pre-treatment, we recommend cleaning your gear before applying Fabsil Gold The roof can only be about 3 sqm so a litre would appear to be good for 2 coats. You can get a 2.5l tin which is only marginally more than a 1 litre https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fabsil-W...326435&hash=item287addc0a8:g:MxEAAOSwndBcox84
