Guest rzep Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 (edited) Finally after month's of waiting I had Chris from Prestige Covers come out and make my new canopy today. I am very happy with the results and just thought I would share the before and after pics! Edited October 27, 2006 by rzep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant wait for mine now! I would not have a problem recommending him to any one. He does a great job and takes his time to make sure that it is right. He was here for almost 12 hours making it. Although we did spend alot of time talking (I think I was distracting him a little bit) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njsconst Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Looks great RZEP. I'll give you a tip.... to keep your clears in top condition, nice and clean. After each use give them a good hose with fresh water and let them dry, then spray them with "Mr Sheen" and wipe off with paper towel. I've been doing this to mine for two years now and they look as good as the first day I got them. Because Mr Sheen contains silicone it puts a nice coating on the clears and the salt spray comes off easily. It leaves them nice and supple too. Also, every now and then spray the zippers with a food grade silicone spray to keep them running smooth. The food grade silicone spray ensures that no chemicals degrade the stitching or canopy material. What ever you do, avoid WD40 and the like on the zippers!!!!! I was advised to do this by the manufacturer of my canopy. Looks really good though, a huge improvement on the old canopy. NJS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
