Orig Vinyl Top - how to clean and restore
 
I have an orig vinyl on my 69 camaro - its dark green.

What is the recomendation for cleaning and restoring it to like new look? It is in excellent condition, no rips, tears, bubbles etc....just could use a good cleaning and resurface it with a good product. I don't want to have any shinney look, just trying to get that orig look with that satin sheen.

Appreciate the advise

Wash with a soft bristle brush and a mild detergent then apply a thin coat of 303...then wipe off the excess.

Not sure if it will work with a green color but i used a black Tana leather wax shoe polish and it made my original black vinyl roof look like new again, even the faded spots were gone.
I just buffed it in with a terry cloth while spreading it on. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Mr Clean Magic Eraser from your local grocery store and then 303.
