Just read an article where canvas can be made fire retardant when soaked in mixture of Borax soap and water. After it is dry,soak the canvas once again in a water and Alum mix to make it water repellent.
Anyone heard of this??
I'm gonna try it on some canvas drop pieces and see how it works. If it does WAHOO! If not I'll use the Borax in the wash and the Alum for Momma's homemade pickles. Looks like a win win either way. :thumbsup:
