About the Fabric Roof Restoration Kit
The Fabric Roof Restoration Kit is designed to allow anybody to completely restore the colour of any worn or faded convertible, fabric roof. Many soft-top owners maintain or restore the bodywork, mechanics, and interior of their vehicle to a high standard, only to be left with a roof that looks old, faded and grubby. With our kit, this no longer needs to be an issue!

Roof Restoration Kit Instructions
Step 1 – Cleaning the roof
Clean the roof thoroughly using the Carpet & Upholstery Cleaner and the Cleaning Brush provided. This will remove all dirt from the roof and any stains from dust, pollen, leaves and rain.
As roofs are often outdoors, and repeatedly wet they can become stained with mould; even if you can’t see it, there may be mould spores developing. So after cleaning the roof, clean it again using the Mould Remover.
This cleaning process is critical to gaining the best end results, as the more dirt you can clean out of the fabric, the more colour you can get in to restore it.
Step 2 – Restoring the roof
Slightly wet the roof with clean water so it becomes damp, you can do this by spraying the water on with trigger spray bottle, or using a hose pipe set on a mist setting. This will help the FabriCoat soak into the roof better.
To apply the FabricCoat, pour it into a bowl so it is more manageable to work with. Dip in the Paint Brush provided, and wipe it onto the fabric. As you do this the fabric will absorb the product and transform the colour. The FabriCoat should be applied in multiple, thin, even coats rather than one or two thick coats. It’s also best to do the edges first then work inwards.
Leave the roof to dry for one hour then continue to build up the colour with numerous thin coats.
Once you are happy with the colour leave it to dry overnight and your roof is ready to use.
Step 3 – Protecting the roof
Spray the Carpet & Upholstery Cleaner onto the roof so the surface becomes wet.
Leave it to dry and your roof is ready to use.
Please see the chart below for our standard colour range, developed to reflect the most common roof colours.

Fabric Roof Restoration Kit - FAQ
Q. Is the kit suitable for use on soft-tops, awnings and boat/yacht roofs made from all materials?
A. Yes, the products in our kit are specifically designed to work on all fabric or canvas roofs, whether they are on convertibles, boats/yachts or awnings. The kit is not suitable for use on roofs made from Vinyl.
If you do find that your roof is made from Vinyl, our Leather Colourant Kit is ideal for the job and is used by both professionals and enthusiasts alike with amazing results on both Leather and Vinyl surfaces.
Q. Is there anything I will need in addition to the kit?
A. No, the Kit includes everything needed.
Q. How much FabriCoat will I need?
A. This depends on the job you are doing but we have included a full 1 litre of FabriCoat in the kit. This will provide more than enough to restore colour, or change the colour of, any convertible roof. In the majority of cases, it should also be sufficient to cover the size of awnings and yacht/boat covers. For those that are undertaking larger jobs, we can supply more Fabric Paint individually, without having to purchase the full kit again, as both products are offered separately on the website.
Q. Can the products in the kit cause damage to my paintwork?
A. No, all products in the kit are completely non-harmful to the paintwork on your car, boat or yacht. If you do get any unintentional transfer on your paintwork while applying it you can simply wipe it away with a damp cloth.
Q. Do I need to clean the roof before applying the FabriCoat?
A. Yes, this is very important to ensure that the FabriCoat adheres to the fibres of the material and ensures as much of the dirt and mould in the roof is removed before colouring. To clean the roof we have included 1 litre of Cleaner. We also include 500ml Mould Remover in the kit, which should be used after cleaning.
Q. The cover or roof of my Boat/Yacht/Soft-top/Awning has mould marks on it, what should I do?
A. First treat the entire area, focusing on the worst affected parts, with the Mould Remover included in the kit, this will kill the mould and any spores on contact and make sure they do not grow back. Then, to remove any remaining stains, clean thoroughly with the Cleaner included.
Q. What colours are your Convertible Roof Restoration Kits available in?
A. We do a range of standard colours, designed to cover the most common colours that soft-tops are produced in. These include Black, Dark Brown, Dark Blue, Dark Red, Dark Green and Light Grey. Standard kits with these colours can be purchased directly through the Website.
Q. How long do I have to leave the FabriCoat to dry?
A. Once applied, the FabriCoat will be 'touch dry' in approximately one hour and will completely cure in 24 hours. Ensure that you leave at least one hour after application before applying the Protector.
