The best is to buy the canvas already waterproofed. Other
methods have been used. For a long time, Thompson's waterseal
was recommended. However, they changed their formula several
years ago and using Thompson's to waterproof tents is no
longer recommended.
For a number of reports on what folks have used, and what
results they got, check this file in the STRUCTURES section
of the Florilegium:
