Convertible Top SealantFabricadabra is a cost-effective nano-tech fabric sealant for using either to waterproof interior upholstery (to make it more resistant to spillages, and easier to keep clean) or to seal a fabric/canvas roof of a soft-top convertible.
Fabricadabra is a cost-effective nano-tech fabric sealant for using either to waterproof interior upholstery (to make it more resistant to spillages, and easier to keep clean) or to seal a fabric/canvas roof of a soft-top convertible.
Due to the nature of fabric sealants, results vary widely so don't expect it to bounce water beads off shagpile carpet with just one light mist.
It delivers best results when applied to a densely woven fabric via a brush or roller (saturation rather than light spraying) in multiple coats. This is because fabric and upholstery can be very uneven and inconsistent microscopically, with lots of protruding filaments, pores and air traps. If a water molecule can find a way through, the fabric will absorb. Therefore, complete coverage and a full coating can be a challenge to achieve and may not even be possible with certain materials (carpets will be far worse than velour seats or soft top roofs).
Fabricadabra is best applied neat for maximum effect, but it can be applied to a wet (freshly cleaned and rinsed) surface to help it flow - although we definitely recommend a follow up coat with this method.
For seats/interior upholstery, ensure the surface is as clean as possible and apply Fabricadabra either as a spray (inconsistent, not as effective, risk of overspray to other surfaces) or via a brush/roller (recommended). If applied using a saturation technique, apply it to complete panels in a section at a time, up to stitch lines, creases, folds or other natural material breaks. This helps prevent watermark effects. Allow to dry and then repeat process. More coats generally mean more water repellence.
