I saw a post where someone had repainted their Targa. I've searched but am unable to find the thread. I think it was a plastic type product, maybe Colorbond?? They had done it several years ago and the top still looked pretty good. Mine is in pretty rough shape and need of some attention. Any recommendations?

Thanks
Joe

I had to repair a hole in mine from a fallen tree branch. After replacing the fiberglass and smoothing out the top, I needed to match the grain look. I just sanded the entire top, which is a good thing so that there is a fresh surface. I then used a paint roller to roll on some trunk liner stuff from advance auto. I then applied a final spray coating of the proper color of black. It looks great, and you would be hard pressed to tell from the factory top. It has been about 3 years since this, and it still looks goodl Joeo
