Hi all, I lurk here occaisionaly when I need to shake my brain loose with some ideas for a project. Now I finally registered cause I can't find what I thought would be an easy search. I'm repairing a vintage Jayco tent trailer. It was recanvased in the mid 90s. It has the standard Sage colored cotton duck "tent". But I cant find it anywhere on line. Found a recover company that appears to use it but they dont sell yardage.
Anyone actually purchased what I'm talking about? I dont want to go with something close, but I may have to. Thanks for any help. -Bruce
Why not get a new cover from Jayco or the "recover company"? Seems like it would save a ton of work. Just wondering.
I'm just replacing a couple small panels that picked up mold from the wood. The rest is in good condition. No way I would try to make a whole new tent!
You don't say where you are ?
You could try Kayospruce in the UK

I might be wrong but maybe J. Ennis? I seem to remember seeing a card once upon a time...

I should have read your post better. I'm sure you tried all the cleaners. Woolite upholstery cleaner worked on my Coleman pop-up.
these guys sell a fair range so will need to search their site.
i just googled military canvas or duck
