waterproofing cabby roof?

Ok for those who dont know, my cabby roof is leaking when it rains, (not when washing) Ive changed the gaskets under the rubbers (which werent there at all) and it still leaks, all rubbers line up correctly (i think) as in they are all in line and pushing against each other, the header seal looks in good condition with no splits and is rubbery soft (makes sense somewhere),  Ive been told by a guy with a astra cabby that it may be the stitching thats gone pourus, the hood is in good condition and is about 2 years old (according to the bloke i bought it off) but could be older.

The question is….  Is there anything i can get to treat the roof and hopefully reseal the stitching?  

thanks for reading and hopefully replying

regards

I use Fabsil, it's for waterproofing tents. Good stuff.

Another vote here for Fabsil - its good stuff and the water beads up just like waxed paintwork
