^^ I was going to recommend the 303 before i read your post.
I used Peanut Butter on it, yes I am not kidding, Peanut Butter. It still looks pretty good after 1 month, the only thing is he never uses 303 or any other conditioner so that kind of starts to whiten up a bit.
Peanut butter does nothing but removes the oxidation like a rubbing compound, I was it thouroghly afterwards and then apply 303 on top of it.

you can get a box on amazon. i've used this on my soft top, and it didn't change the color much but my soft top wasn't very light to begin with. I guess honda doesn't make the darkest soft tops

Thanks for the tutorial! I just did mine this week and love the results. My s2k is garage kept so it wasn’t very faded. I did a light coat, let dry for 5hrs (overkill) with a fan on it and another light coat. I used light masking tape for windows and trim so I could get in every tough spot. I’m loving the results, super deep black. Already had a coworker ask if it’s a new top.

I always read the 1-Star reviews of products and this product seems horrible on many cars. Flaking off, powdering, etc.

I’ll post an update after being on for a week or two. I’d guess people experience flaking for two reasons: applying it too heavy & thick (best way is two very light coats, hours in between). And applying it in the sun rather than in the shade AFTER the top has cooled and relaxed.
