Default Convertible Top Conditioning
Anyone found a product or process to ejuvinate the Hartz Stayfast convertible top material. Mine is in good shape but has faded. Even thinking of using a cloth black dye to make it look new again. Any thoughts?

Just be careful cleaning it and do use a hard brush as it can damage the fibers. Will just take longer with a rag or soft brush.
