With staples I'd remove the top and attach the canvas from a standing
position while it's on sawhorses!  You can clean the fuzz with bleach and
even paint it while you are at it.

Stuart, did that last year.

Subject: Canvas Replacement: Remove Upper Bed Help?

Hi all

Bentley says that for my '81, the closet and upper storage need to be
removed before upper bed can come out. That in itself doesn't doesn't seem
like a lot of work especially since I don't have AC.

Will removing the upper bed make canvas replacement, top still installed,
any easier?

My canvas has the staples.

Neil.
