Lisa Newman Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Hello I'm enquiring if anyone knows of a place where I can have my roof re- dyed? I live in Lincolnshire is there anyone who can recommend anyone or a dye to use? Thankyou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayj_prod Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Firstly, welcome. Another member to the sub-chapter of Lincs MLOC. Autoglym do a soft-top product, but I'm not sure how much it will dye if the fading is that bad. (I'd be worried about a patchy finish looking worse to be honest... but maybe that's just me.) Let's see a picture of your car so we know who we're waving at! Have you seen this...

Jonathan E Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Ive used the renovo restorer and then the reproofer, its a very good product, not cheap but probably cheaper than a new roof or dye. How bad is the roof in question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hya mark Thankyou for replying , I have seen this on the net . Looks like good stuff, have you ever used it before ? Thanks Yes, I used it on my Elise 111s - I suffer from OCD and was quite prepared to buy a new one if I was not 100% happy with the results! Just follow the instructions and take your time, it really isn't difficult. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa Newman Posted June 20, 2016 Author Share Posted June 20, 2016 That's fantastic I would upload a picky if I could but can't seem to do it on my phone, it's bad it looks like a mucky brown but meant to be black it was like that when I bought it 4 yrs ago Ive used the renovo restorer and then the reproofer, its a very good product, not cheap but probably cheaper than a new roof or dye. How bad is the roof in question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daveb99 Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Welcome. It may not be faded as much as you think - could just be ingrained dirt. I'd try the Autoglym Fabric Hood Cleaner first, and if that doesn't work, go for the Renovo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kieranexige Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I agree with Dave.... A really good clean is a good place to start. Even it it ensures a clean surface to use the renovo on. I used the autoglym product mentioned above on my vx220 and the wife's z4. Made a huge difference. With regards to uploading a photo from your phone I would suggest first leaving the mobile version on the site ( located right at the bottom of the page called full version), then using the attach a image in the reply. Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
