Brush leaves, dirt and debris off the canvas with a broom. If the canvas material is wet, allow it to dry fully in direct sunlight. Brush the surface again to remove any mold and mildew spores.
2). Mix 2 caps full of mild wool detergent with 1 gallon of warm water. Submerge your natural-bristle brush in the mild detergent solution and scrub the canvas surface to remove dirt and stains.
3). Rinse the canvas trailer with a hose until all the detergent is washed off. Allow the canvas to air-dry completely.
4). Apply a protective spray to the canvas to provide a water-resistant coating that keeps water out of the trailer and reduces the formation of mildew. Follow package directions to apply the spray in an effective manner.
