Default redying canvas top

With the sun putting a fade on the canvas top, i was wondering if there is anything out there that can bring back a deep black color and protect the top as well.


My friend was telling me that he believes armor-all makes a product that should work for the convertible top. He said its not FOR convertible tops, but since it's a vinyl top - he would assume it would work.

Any input?

Griotts garage sells something that is for black tops - I used it and didnt notice very much difference if any... so, that doesnt answer your questions but dont look to that product as an answer.

I use the raggtop stuff and it always makes the top look better and more black after applying.

yes our tops are vinyl. Look up raggtop convertible cleaner/protector. One is a cleaner and one protects the top.

Raggtopp and 303 are both great options. Definitely use one or the other. They won't restore color but they're good cleaners/protectants.

Both are good and like takeshi said they won't restore color but they tend to make the top look newer to me. Every time I apply it it always makes the top look more black than it was before.
