All fabric soft tops come with an invisible 'weather proofer' already applied, but over time this special coating wears away and needs replacing, or else your soft top will be left unprotected from the elements.
Renovo® Ultra Proofer protects your fabric hood by creating an invisible chemical barrier which repels water, prevents dirt and grime, tree sap, bird droppings and road salts from penetrating into the fibres and doing damage. Ultra Proofer's special formula also contains UV inhibitors and agents to prevent mould and mildew. Prolongs the life of your soft top and the value of your car.

Before the Ultra Proofer is applied, your hood is washed and brushed in detail using a variety of specialist hood cleaning products. The convertible hood is then fan dried. This clean and especially the dry is the secret to whole process.
Your car will also be given a quick wash so that you won't be collecting a dirty car with a clean roof! This level of service is ideal for most cars that are no more than a few years old, where the hood is reasonably free from mould, moss and lichen -- for older, dirtier hoods, you may also require the Hood Deep Clean (below).

Your hood is cleaned, fan dried, re-proofed and fan died again. We normally need your car for 4.5 hours - please allow a little more time if it is a rainy day as it will be especially important that we get it properly dry.

Special cleaning with mechanical brushes for roofs with years of ground in dirt - will also remove lichen and moss (see picture right).

It is essential to get a hood absolutely clean before applying Proofer or Reviver, and it can take hours and a lot of work. This additional service will ensure the best finish for your convertible.

50% of very dirty hoods have surprised us and have come up so good re-colouring has not been necessary.

Re-conditions and re-colours fabric hoods which have become faded. Available in black, brown and blue.

Soft Top Reviver is not a protective coating and requires Ultra Proofer applied over the top - therefore this service is an addition to our Fabric Hood Proofing & Clean. In 50% of cases, cleaning will refresh a hood to the extent that it doesn't require re-colouring.

Many convertible cars have soft clear plastic rear windscreens which collect fine scratches, become stained by acid rain and become cloudy and opaque with age. This causes your otherwise perfect car to look unsightly as well as limiting rear vision which can be dangerous. It can costs several hundred pounds to replace these windows with new plastic, but Renovo® plastic polish is a special polish especially formulated for the restoration of plastic rear screens on soft-top cars, leaving them clean and clear. Renovo® have tested their product on plastic rear windows, perspex screens, lights on light aircraft, boats, yachts and cars. We have found that in all but the very worst cases, Plastic Polish can restore a window back to an acceptable condition: "Visibility of plastic rear screen much..."

Renovo Plastic polish will remove light scratches, cloudiness, discolouration and restores transparency on cabriolet windows and plastic lens covers. It also cleans and conditions, helping to soften vinyl which can become brittle.
