Whilst fitting a fibreglass wind deflector to the front of my van, I've managed to tear my pop top about 1 cm across and also a couple of small puncture hole. The roof supplier kindly sent me some spare canvas to do the repair but i just wanted to ask which glue i should use?
Any recommendations?
TIA

Stinks a bit in the tub, but that goes and it is waterproof when dry. I would also suggest cutting a round or oval repair patch to avoid corners that can lift.
 
@Leeabr101. I repaired mine with some stuff called Tear Aid (Type A) which is quite expensive BUT absolutely brilliant. It's been on for nearly 2 years now and is still perfect. When I did the repair, I also stuck a piece on a piece of the same roof canvas and left it stuck to the outside of a window and exposed to all weathers until a couple of months ago - it's still holding fast and waterproof. This is the stuff:
Also do a search for 'Tear Aid Video' and you can see what it does and how to apply it. Hope this helps.
