Waterproofing canvas?

Anyone have a favorite goo that they put on canvas to keep it waterproof?

There are quite a few brands that I found on Amazon but most were for sailboats and tents... I don't think they make modern sails or tents out of canvas.. but the labels do say its ok to apply on canvas....

Anyone find anything particularly good??

Seems that WeeBee Webbing (the place I got my CCKW top) lists CANVAK. Will check in with Mona from New Life to see what she says for her seat covers.

Mona at New Life Canvas also recommends CANVAK..

That was quicker than I thought.

Cabela's has the best price.... $34.99/gal. Going to buy 3 Gallons to get $5 shipping.

Lots of other places list it... but UPS Ground is $13. That's a 45% shipping fee. No Fracking way.

One place lists it for $24.95 (http://www.mytarp.com/canvak-waterproof ... n-can.aspx)
But has a $14.95 shipping charge thats 64%!!!! (14.95/24.95 = 64% shipping charge)
