Vinyl roof

Post by splash »

My convertible roof has started to develop nasty mould on the inside. Can anyone recommend something to clean it off and protect it?
Cheers

Welcome aboard splash.
The only cleaner I have heard of thats supposed to be good is Renovo but I have never used it personally.

i had the same problem, i took the roof off, took it inside clean the hell out of it with all the proper cleaning things and re-waterproofed it put it back on the car. which was a pain as the wood shrank while it was in the house and a week later the mould reappeared and it was no longer waterproof at all. the biggest waste of effort ever. ive bought a new hood now but need someone to fit it and trim it all neat. im sure lots of people have cleaned them succsesfully but be cautious because i ruined an ok hood trying. if you do have success please let me know incase i have to do it on the new hood and also does anyone know how to prevent the mould in the first place.
