water proofing the canvas

I was wondering what do I use to re-condition or water proof the canvas on my Palomino S17? That last time it rained here I noticed water coming in on my front bunk. The water was dripping off the support rod. No body was sleeping in there so it was not condensation that I saw.

    Your Palomiino has vinyl coated canvas except for the window panels. If it's leaking at the top and dripping from support rod its either the stitching leaking, a hole or tear in the vinyl, or something amiss at the attachment of the canvas to the wall.

    For leaking stitching the stuff to use is made by a company named Iosso.


    This^^^^^^
    Leaks are from the seams or a hole in the vinylized canvas. Should be no need to waterproof the canvas unless the canvas has become cracked from exposure.
