I'll see what it looks like cleaned up. It was perfect last summer, nice and black, but seems to have very rapidly gone down hill.Once you get the mould cleaned up Renovo does a great job of re dying the hood. I did my Z4 with it last year and it went from patchy grey to jet black in a mornings work

I plan on sticking the car in the garage to do the coating, and mask off the body work and windows with a dust sheet, no wind to blow the spray about.Really hard to keep on top of the convertible roofs if the car is left outside, mine has protection on it but bird crap and other contaminants really make it hard to keep it looking good.
I am seriously considering just a cover for the roof, mine was protected with Gyeon which was very good, but only lasts a year at best.
A specific cleaning product and protection is required, very hard to do outside as the spray goes everywhere and overspray must be removed immediately.
I watched a couple of video’s and the top tip was to apply the protection with a brush, no overspray and it seemed to work for mine.
I'd be happy if I get a result like thatMy wife's, friends, mum's Mini was parked up for about 18 months beside foliage and looked like this,

Ended up getting right down to using a toothbrush for the final pieces,

The Ab stuff can leave a white chalk like residue on certain materials.
As a general rule of thumb I always recommend treating a roof every year.
