I'm not ready to totally refinish the top but I would like to get rid of that faded look if I can.
Know of any products out there that can bring some life back into the top and possibly the sail panel vinyl too. Kinda like what rubbing compound does for faded paint. |

I used the truck bed liner approach. The look is very nice. You can vary the texture depending on how far back you hold the can.
I put mine on pretty fine so it ended up a little rough to the touch which can be a pain for towels and wash mitts! If I were to do it again, I think I'd hold the can closer, get it on a little thicker. If you try this route, practice on some wood. Oh yeah, I sanded my top and put used the primer filler method to fill in some holes where the old texture had been rubbed through when mounted in the trunk. |
