Guest br1gg5y Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Have a MK3 vinyl roof, only very minor cracks. But the vinyl is very stiff. Look like it could do with a good "feed" like leather seats do, to make it more supple. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingergman Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 i use vaseline on mine lol, keeps it nice and soft in the commen splitting areas and tis waterproof, but if you need to do the full foof then theres plenty of products out there like auto glym roof protector,that tends to soften it up a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cvh Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Everytime I wash mine I use either tyre spray or dashboard renovator on the hood. Costs a stack cos I use a tin at a time (and rub it in with a sponge) but any of the silicone sprays work a treat and looks black when its done. I do the same with the grey vinyl hood on the wifes but seem to get no thanks from it cos it never looks any different. Stops it splitting though. Probably final work is that I never move the hood unless the vinyl is warm cos when its cold its brittle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halfords bumper care it was £6.99 last time i bought it, use the whole bottle on the roof it will look a million times better after its fantastic stuff for roofs!
