Hi all, I waterproofed my Isabella awning last year using Aquatex and it worked well, it is quite expensive for the aerosol cans, I have seen Fabsil which can be used in a pump sprayer and looks like much better value, has anyone used it on an isabella? Any pros and cons

    Not on an Isabella, but I can't see the make of awning would make a difference, and it works very well.  How often do you intend to waterproof it if you only did it last year.  I think we did our awning just once after quite a few years, and the waterproofing lasted until 2015 when the awning was fifteen years old without needing to be done again.  The awning fabric cover was stolen that year, or it might still have been waterproof today.

    I would agree on the frequency Val. Not an Awning but our larger frame tent we did at most 3 times in the 16 years we used it. That was Fabsil, and these type of products have generally improved over time.
