Hi all,
Can anyone provide cleaning tips on removing our famous outback ‘red dirt’ from the canvas of a James baroud roof top tent?
Cheers

Wear it as a badge of honour, almost anything you use will compromise the waterproofing. I have heard of people using Napisan.

WaxConverters, who make the best Ozzie canvas, advise to not use any chemicals (including soap) whatsoever on their canvas in case it affects the waterproofing.
I wet down the canvas then gently brush the canvas whilst the hose is running over it.
Still doesn't remove it all.

Badge of honour is the best idea as it is a dye. If you try to remove it you will wreck it. If you cannot stand it probably need a new one
