I invested in a small roller and a small roller pan, That worked really well, my trick was to put the glue down on the trailer and get the canvas adhered to it before it dried. I had to rewet with the glue several spots before I put the canvas down, the roller came in handy for that too. I did have a small brush handy to really wet some edges down. the day I really glued it was hot and the first dry day we had in a while. I rolled the canvas up to do the top and push pins came in handy to hold the canvas on the sides and in several spots. I cannot stress enough to use the glue liberally. it is going to drip and make your world not just messy but really stickie and messy. Use some type of scraper, plastic to rake along the canvas to push the canvas down into the glue. one thing about TBII it will dry and you can peal it off your skin. A shower with one of the bath scrubbies and all the glue comes off. No harsh chemicals. Just remember to take lots of ....I would love to see your plan in action!!!
