reparing canvas

[torcano]

The bimini top on my boat has a few pin holesin it from seagulls droping shells on it. I was thinking of making a patch from some matching canvas to cover the holes. Can you patch a canvas bimini? If so what is the best adhesive to use? The fabric is made by Sunbrella.
Thanks.

Yes, it can be easily done. Go to sailrite.com and get the adhesive they recommend. I made my own covers using their materials. They also will give friendly expert advice. I don't remember the name of the adhesive off hand.
