Re: canvas top stretch

It really depends what areas you want to stretch.You can saturate the top after sundown so it stays wet or do it in the rain.Place a board or a few bricks on it and as long as it is wet ,it will stretch.To keep it that way you will have to leave the weight on it until it dries all the way.Been there--done that..

Re: canvas top stretch

I could only snap about 1/2 of my top on after sending it to be re-stiched. I put it on as far as it would go and waited for the sun and some rain to do the real work. Fits fine now.
