I Guys.
I am in the planning of making a minimal very light PMF foamie teardrop trailer.
I would like your opinion and input about those 2 methods to fill the weave:

Glue the canvas and completely fill the weave with diluted Titebond 2 and then paint.
OR
Glue the canvas with Titebond 2 and then fill the weave with many coats of diluted latex primer and then latex paint.

Any opinion, suggestion or experience sharing is welcome! :peace:

I would use paint rather than glue.

I personally prefer the paint method , it's waterproof ... :thinking: If you really want to fill the weave , get some concrete block primer . It's very thick and fills a lot !! :thumbsup:

What I meant was to paint of glue the weave.
I will go with the paint. Thanks!
