  • In this video, I'm restoring my faded convertible top on my 2003 Ford Mustang GT with Forever Black Gel. This is the best product for the money. It's very, very easy to use and the results are extremely satisfying. I ended up applying two coats and I'm still left with half of the bottle.
    Thank you for watching and following along.

    Did my Jeep's ragtop and plastic fenders yesterday and it looks great. Easy to apply. We'll see how it holds up.

    Update from 2weeks ago
    For my cloth top-is different from vinyl -I cleaned with 303+303 waterproofing
    Add light coaton sponge -make 3 strips twice as long as the sponge and next strip one length of the sponge. Brush to overlap in same direction
    Come back next day for 2nd coat - make sure to brush of.dust- then repeat and finish the whole kit. 95 Corvette don't see icon to download photos

      It will fade away slowly, but you can reapply whenever you was your car. One bottle can last about 6 times. I just washed my car and used the coat again.

      Car is 03 i bought it with roof faded. I used the gel and Vegas weather is still holding about 80% of its original dye. But I’ll be hitting it up again in June. It’s worth every penny, you can apply 3 times out of the bottle. I’m going heavy and 2 times a year. It looks sweet for the price it costs.

    It looks "shiny"
    Has that "armor-all" look.
    The "flat black" of the canvas is lost, however it is very "black"
    I'm not sure I like that. Gives it a "vinyl" look as far as I can see by camera.
