I'm in the process of trying to restore many of the little details of my 91 LX vert.
I have a post regarding headlight restoration already and have gotten some great feedback. My next area of focus is my convertible top. It's in great shape with no holes or leaks but it is somewhat faded in spots. It almost looks like mold/mildew spots in places. I've scrubbed the heck out of it a tried a few cleaners/protectants but nothing really works. It's made of vinyl so can you dye it? Just looking for some ideas or suggestions.
Thanks
