HI everyone, The roof on the old girl needs waterproofing and was wondering if anyone knew the amount of aerosol waterproofing chemical i should apply, Do i give it a light dusting or saturate it.

Just to clarify, what will you be using to do the waterproofing? An aerosol spray or a bottle of waterproofer?

I have purchased 3 cans of Aerosol waterproofer, I guess there is enough between the cans to saturate the roof maybe twice if that's what i have to do.

That sounds like it ought to be enough but I guess you'll only know for sure when it's dried off and then it rains again. I suspect you won't have to wait long for the latter

I bought a 2 litre tin of Fabsil waterproofer (usually used for camping equipment) and paint that on very generously from time to time. Goes a long way and does the job pretty well.

Great stuff, Looks like the whole lot's going to be applied tommorow, "Weather Permitting", Thanks for the advise.

Invalid or non-existent item ID.I used the Autoglym kit


Used about half the bottle of the protctor fluid attached it a picture of the result 4 weeks after treating it and after a night of heavy rain.

It's been said before, but the soft top is inherently waterproof as there is an impermeable layer within the fabric construction. Amazing but true: quality construction on an MG.

Waterproofing does reduce growth of mould however, by repelling surface water as your picture shows.
