Sealing a DIY Canopy
 

Whats the easiest way to seal a canopy? or can anyone recommend some paint or product?

I really like to use a product called Diamond Wood Finish. It is made by Flecto Varathane and is water based so it does not have the strong smell of the oil based products. I think it comes in satin, semi-gloss and gloss depending on how shiny of a finish you want. I used it on the last canopy that I built and found it really easy to apply.

Asking for the inside? I just primed then painted with a kitchen/bath latex.

Did you use this on the inside as well? Where did you get it?

I just used marine paint from homedepot or rona.

Yes I used it on the inside also. I stained the wood first then sealed it with the diamond finish. I think I got it at Home Hardware in Kelowna but any of the large hardware stores should carry the Flecto line (Rona or Home Depot).

Thanks for the info, I'll have to go get some.

There is also a product that is white, I believe it is called "Killz"?
