Choosing Your Canopy
What’s the difference between fibreglass, aluminium and stainless steel canopies?
What’s the difference between fibreglass, aluminium and stainless steel canopies?
Fibreglass canopies offer the most factory-style finish with paint-matched colour options and quieter on-road performance, making them popular for touring and daily driving. Aluminium canopies are lightweight and practical for tradies wanting strength without excessive weight. Stainless steel canopies are the most heavy-duty option, with high load ratings ideal for roof-top tents, touring setups and demanding work applications.

Fibreglass canopies are also popular for touring because of their sleek appearance and weather sealing, while aluminium canopies suit lighter touring setups where minimising vehicle weight is important.

How do I look after a fibreglass canopy?
How do I look after a fibreglass canopy?
Fibreglass canopies are low-maintenance — wash with regular car shampoo and apply a quality polish or wax 2–3 times a year to protect the gel coat from UV. Avoid abrasive sponges or harsh solvents that can dull the finish. Treated correctly, the paint-matched finish on a fibreglass canopy holds up the full life of the ute.
