[MRCA] Cleaning canvas

[Ken Krausgill]

Hi Tom,

I have had success washing by hand with Dawn blue dish liquid, wash rinse and repeat a few times, then air dry.

As soon as the leather is dry enough start working in a good saddle oil into it with your fingers and do that several times over a few days.

Good luck,
Ken

Hello All,

I have a canvas radio cover for a Russian R-104M that really needs to be cleaned.  It has leather straps.  Anybody got advice on how to clean without killing it?
