preserving original vinyl hardtop cover ?

[Ray G.]

Gentlemen;
Does anyone have suggestions on preserving an original vinyl hardtop cover ?
The seams are beginning to lift due to shrinkage.
Thanks
Ray

Ray, I've had pretty good luck with 303 Aerospace Protectant. Nourishes and protects the vinyl while providing a nice matte sheen. Not much you can do if the seems are actually failing. This might buy you some time.

There's a thread a few days ago about preserving door panels. Same idea.

Keep it clean, out of the sun and avoid temperature swings.
