I have done searched both here and on the Bird Board without finding much (except on the Bird they are pretty much all cult members of some guy named Tom in NJ who restores tops for a business). I want to do mine myself. 914 targa tops are simpler than 911.
Anyone have a suggestion on paint brand and color and additive to get the pebble finish correct? |

Rob, there was a thread a year or two ago and the member posted pics of his top. I don't think he needed to restore the texture so it wouldn't help you on that point. BUT he used SEM Landau Black to re-do the black.
No idea how it has held up but it looked unbelievable in the photos he posted - like a brand new top. SEM products are available at most body shop supply stores; they do leather/vinyl dyes, stuff for plastic trim etc. search a thread called "Spruced up faded targa top" |
