Frequently Asked Questions

Are canvas tarps waterproof?

No. Most canvas tarps are water-resistant, not fully waterproof. They shed water well with slope, but standing water can seep through.

What is the difference between cotton canvas and polyester canvas tarps?

Polyester canvas typically offers better tear strength and UV resistance. Cotton canvas is natural, breathable, and durable, but can wear faster in harsh UV environments.

What do treated and untreated canvas tarps mean?

Treated canvas has water-repellent treatment for outdoor use. Untreated natural cotton duck canvas is not water-repellent and is better for indoor or specialty use.

Are canvas tarps good for trailer use on highways?

No. Canvas tarps are generally not recommended for highway trailer applications. Use vinyl-coated polyester truck tarps for transport loads.

Do canvas tarps have seams?

Yes. Most canvas tarps include seams, especially in larger sizes.

What is cut size vs finished size?

Cut size is before hems and seams. Finished size is usually 3% to 5% smaller after manufacturing.

How far apart are grommets?

Most stock canvas tarps include heavy-duty brass grommets approximately every 2 feet, plus corner grommets.

Can I waterproof an old canvas tarp?

Yes, if fabric condition is still good. Re-treatment products can restore repellency, but heavily worn fabric may not respond well.

Can canvas tarps be used indoors?

Yes. Polyester canvas is commonly preferred indoors because some treated cotton canvas products may have initial odor or residue.

Do canvas tarps shrink or fade?

They can. Cotton canvas may shrink and fade over time, especially under strong UV exposure.

Can I order custom canvas tarp sizes?

Yes. MyTarp offers custom sizes and custom grommet spacing. Call 404-800-8888 or email info@mytarp.com.

Do you offer Made in USA canvas tarps?

Yes. MyTarp carries Made in USA canvas tarp options across multiple fabric types and sizes.
