Hey all, the canvas canopy on my ute (now 10 years old) has finnaly let go. The Zipper has been pretty worn for a while, but now wont do up again. (keeps "self-unzipping") the actual canvas is still OK.
So,,, any suggestion of whether this can be repaired?? Im in outer north east burbs of
Melbourne, (but happy to travel round
melbourne of course!)
any recommendations on a "canvas canopy zipper replacement company" neer me would be awesome.
Thanks People, I love this site..
Dazz.

Any canvass fabricator in the yellow pages should be able to do it.
Its not rocket science to them

It probably only needs the sliders replaced, they wear & dont mesh the teeth properly. They can be squeezed together a bit, but you have to know where to do it.

You only need to replace the sliders and it would pay you to use Bees Wax to help things work a lot better.
