I Got Sno-Seal on My Canvas (Doh!)
Written by eleugers on March 5th, 2009A customer wrote the following today:
I bought your shoulder bag recently and absolutely love it. Perfect size for work and bike essentials, and it looks professional as well. I treated the leather with sno-seal yesterday and it looks great, but I got some on the canvas. Any recommendations on how to get it out of the canvas? Also, I was wondering what you recommended to treat the canvas for continued water repellency. The article in the blog recommended nikwax, which kind was this.
One more question, are you planning on making handlebar bags any time soon? I hope so.

Use a hair dryer on it – the Sno-seal will melt into the canvas and will not
harm it (it also disappears). You can also apply a tissue to the area to
absorb the melted Sno-Seal if it is thick.
We are working on handlebar bags – no definite timing for the release.
