Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I use Ragg Topp to clean my cab top, but the color which was black is loosing some of the rich color after 4 years. The top is in otherwise perfect condition. Has NE1 recolored their cab top? What is recommended?

POST 2Original post

Forgot where I saw it but there is a product that re-dyes your top. It is ONLY for black tops so you should be good! I can't for the life of me remember where I saw the product though. sorry.

POST 3Original post

I could use this too if anyone knows where to get it

POST 4Original post

I have an 87 factory slant with the black top. I noticed that some of the side fabric down the column was fading and had lost it's color. I went to a shop that specialized in the restoration of classic cars, and the shop owner recommended "SEM Color Coat". The color he recommended was Landau Black. It comes in a spray can and directs you to cover off anything you don't want sprayed....I used newspaper and painters tape.....the directions specify: "Changes or renews color on most flexible and rigid plastics, carpet, vinyl, and velour. I used it to renew the black fabric and it has retained the black coloration in spite of a number of the fact I've washed the car a number of times. Hope this helps. Chuck

POST 5Original post

In http://autopia.org/ you have good info and DIYs. This products have good quality:

POST 6Original post

I believe that those products are designed to keep the top clean and maintain the waterproof status of the canvas.....I dont think they actually dye it or restore the color. The black SEM Colorcoat I've been using has restored and blackened the color. I use the Ragg top products to maintain the waterproofing. Im sure that either of the products do a good job.

POST 7Original post

Mike, The product you want to use is SEM spray paint. It is a great product, I use it alot. I have sprayed large areas, tops headliners, be careful though, it can look spotty. Do light coats and at good distance. Becareful not to get it too thick, it will look as though it as been redyed. Good luck!
