Enclosure done, with pics...

Nope, you got to hold the fort down for us on Sunday. Sunday is usually my day off with the exception of about 1 a month. I can always be found at work 6 days a week, but not always all day ;D

Man now your giving away my fish!! ::) Thursday looks decent. Have eels swimming in the garage & I need to kill them..
 
I rode around in my new enclosure today, let a couple of eels swim for while, and stayed real cozy the whole time. Man I love this top. I've got some pics to upload in the AM.

Hey Slot, I might have missed this but are you gonna or have you already applied any scotch guard type rain proofing stuff to your canvas? Whats the word on doing that? Good / bad? What's the best stuff to use?

Just trying to get some info on canvas. My current top is vinyl and if I redo it one day I think I'll go with sunbrella or the like. Curous on waterproofability after a good sustained soaking. They vinyl does great.

Thanks,

BR, mine is a Sunbrella "like" canvas and has never needed any Scotchgard or other treatment...for what a guy pays for the stuff, it better not ever leak ;) ;D ...
 
We've had a mess of rain the last few days and she has held up well. I was told told use 3m 303 fabric protector a couple times a year on the Sunbrella.

Have to see how long it stays that way? I used it in the ocean Sunday and did have a bit of salt on it. Got home in the rain but hosed it off and it rained a flood. Have to see how much work it takes to keep it so clear.

This going to be interesting, I see that they have different glass. They have stuff called 20/20 and is to be as clear as glass.

I just wonder if its worth the extra cash?? Salt is tuff!! Gets real gritty when dry.
I wonder if one is more scratch resistant then another?
 
Lumber, I assume your talking about my 2-rod outrodder? Had em custom made by a local welder. Walked in, told him what I wanted (on a Friday afternoon), waived a few greenbacks in his face, and he said come back in an hour. Worked out beautifully. Sometimes it's amazing what you can get done with Johny Cash on a Friday afternoon ;D

Hey Slot,

I keep hearing the best way to maintain that rolla glass is to use car wax and a "powerball" on a drill.

Just adding my 2 cents ;D
