Washing ezup top

Sledneck · 08-20-2011, 04:18 PM

Has anyone ever taken the canvas off ur ezup and put it in the wash? My 3 tents are filthy. I was thinking about bringing them to the local laundromat and washing and drying them there cause the machines are heavy duty. Any thoughts?

Try a product called "Black streak remover" made by Camco that is made for campers and awnings. You should be able to find it at walmart with the camper accessories in the automotive dept.

Good question... mine are getting a little ratty, too.

Decided to get new ones just for the trailer and events... relegated the original for occasional car polishes/waxes when shade is the requirement.

Do have a broom and an adjustable nozzle (wide angle) pressure washer.

Very important distinction there

Otherwise you will soon have a perforated roof.

Got a coin operated car wash nearby? Set one up, spray with Simple Green or like product then spray wash with soap then rinse.

I don't see why it can't be washed and the car wash idea sounds good. I think I would leave it on the frame and open it back up to dry in the sun to keep its shape. Also you may have to put some kind of water sealer back on it to stop leaking.
