I’m amazed I needed the plastic glass replacing on my MGTF but the cost put me off, then I heard about Renovo hood plastic cleaner so I bought the best.

It's brilliant, the glass is like new, it even worked on my 1953 Land Rover, I can highly recommend your product, it’s the best.

Just used your RENOVO Canvas Cleaner, Reviver and Ultra Proofer over Easter 2013 on my 2006 Mazda MX-5 NC after someone from the Mazda MX-5 Australia club recommended a try. And I was BLOWN away!! Totally like a new soft top. The fading and white patches which was on the soft top magically disappeared after treatment.

The step by step guide on your website was very easy to follow.

This is my third MX-5 I have owned and should of known and used RENOVO earlier, totally amazing!!

I have for some years used the plastic window polish on my Alfa Spider and the results always amaze me. I have just used your Soft Top Canvas Cleaner and cannot believe the results.

I am a fanatical car cleaner and I thought the roof was spotless. How wrong was I. The dirt that came off my spotless roof using your cleaner amazed me. Thank you once again Renovo.

I've just put 2 coats of reviver on my 11 year old MGF soft top and I am absolutely delighted. It has transformed a faded, shabby, stained top to like new and saved me the cost of a replacement.

Your revival product did not make any extravagant claims, but worked perfectly, unlike certain other products which don't deliver "what it says on the tin."

Well pleased and will recommend it to others.

Just wanting to let you know, that after receiving your products last week and using them, my Saab roof does not leak anymore! I was amazed at how easy it was to fix the problem of having a shower in my car every time it rained! It is fantastic, and believe me, with all the rain we've had in Melbourne this week, it has well and truly been tested! Thank you so much for providing a fantastic product and all your help. I will certainly be buying the products again and definitely recommending them to others!

I have an Astra that is nine years old that was 18months old when I bought it. I have never cleaned the soft top apart from clean water when washing the car, so the hood has never been properly cleaned. As you can imagine it had a lot of dirt and mould. I used the full works, canvas cleaner, reviver followed by the Ultra Proofer and I must say that the hood is infinitely better than it was. There are some faint marks remaining, so another clean and reproof in six months or so should get it back to near new. Very good products, easy to use and good results if you follow the directions to the letter.

I had a chance to use the Soft Top Canvas Cleaner one evening during the week leading up to the concourse, but ran out of time to use the Canvas Ultra Proofer.

The product and process was very gentle on the hood; dry brush and vacuum first, applied the product with a 2" paint brush, left for half an hour then scrubbed using warm water and a sponge giving a bit more effort over the hood bows and finished by rinsing off with water.

The result was very impressive. The discolouration from ingrained dirt over the hood bows and some marks that I had not been able to remove in the past had all gone. The tiny spots around the rear quarters survived but were far less obvious. I have enough product left for perhaps another three or four cleans. In short – great product.

I have a Porsche Boxster and your initial answer to my inquiry about dyeing the top from white to dark blue prompted me to dye it.  I did receive the proofer today, thank you.

I dyed it 5 times but 4 probably would have been okay; I wanted to be sure. 

Anyway, it looks great - thank you.

I always thought my weekend hobby car – a 10-year-old Mazda MX-5 NB series – looked quite respectable, even though its black vinyl soft-top was showing signs of greying.

Water restrictions where I live in south-east Queensland prevent regular washing – and besides, the top is usually stowed under the tonneau cover. My attitude to open-top motoring can be summarised: If it looks like rain, leave the car in the garage.

When I was introduced to Renovo I was hesitant, thinking mild detergent and warm water always worked in the past. How wrong I was.

I found the vinyl soft top cleaner true to its claim of “the ultimate” and was amazed at the deep brown colour of the rinsing water. Two applications of the cleaner alone made my soft top appear almost like new.

After I applied the Renovo Ultra Proofer with UV inhibitor the top didn’t look much different from how it was the day I brought the MX-5 home. I have every confidence Renovo will not only protect my investment but help with resisting stains and avoiding fading.

I have no hesitation in recommending Renovo to anyone who enjoys wind-in-the-hair motoring.

Hi Renovo

Just thought i would let you know how pleased with the result i am after using Vinyl Soft Top cleaner and Proofer at the weekend.

It has really transformed the top to our 1959 Morris Tourer - from a grey grubby colour to a lovely beige hood again. It is the original hood too so all the better for looking like new. We also used the plastic polish - which has improved the visibility with some elbow grease - another application should improve this further.

So after a top job done we enjoyed ourselves cruising around Cornwall - unfortunately the sun was shining so we couldn't show off the new improved hood!

Many thanks for providing some great products - keep it up.

I thought that it a pleasure to tell you people just how wonderful your products are.

I have a Chaparral sports cruiser 290, 7 years old, but to look at her she looks like new, because of your products.

The reviver has ensured, no, guaranteed the colour of my canvas pack covers to look as new, as good as the day I bought this boat from new, the proofer has ensured that I have no water ingress into my boat when the covers are on, and the window cleaner and vinyl cleaners add icing to the cake, I have and continue to recommend your products to any one and every one, because I passionately believe that this is one hell of a must have addition to those who like me want to protect and maintain the things we invest so much time money and energy on, and in my case a boat, which is a fine example of what you can do if you really care, thank you RENOVO

Just wanted to let you know what a fantastic product the black hood reviver is.

After a mishap with a competitor's product that reacted with/ was grossly misapplied on the hood of my Alfa spider your reviews and testimonials led me to try and salvage it.

Given the appalling state of the hood my hopes were not good but I thought it was worth a go.

After two coats (applied using a kitchen sponge which I found easier to work with than a paint brush), whilst the result is not absolutely perfect it's a damn sight better it was, and far exceeded my expectations.

Given the results I've had with the reviver, I will be trying out your window polish as well, and if the results are half as good I'll be very happy.

.... the result?

Well, my MX-5’s roof is now sparkling. The slightly unexpected chequered pattern that’s emerged appears to be inherent in the roof material – it certainly isn’t a repercussion of my far less consistent brushwork.

The Renovo kit is, as far as I can see, about as close as you can get to a new roof without fitting one.

I wanted to write and say 'THANK YOU' for producing such fabulous products!

I have a canvas soft top and first used your Soft Top Canvas Cleaner and Ultra Proofer two years ago and I was amazed!

It did exactly what it claimed too and I was very surprised and pleased as how easy these products are to actually use. I would recommend applying the Ultra Proofer with a kitchen sponge rather than a paint brush as it is quicker and easier to apply evenly without runs.

When I first used this product my car was only two years old but after treatment the difference was still clearly visible. The cleaner really cleans deep into the fibres and lifts out all mould, dust and grime and the water proof barrier the ultra proofer leaves is fantastic the water just beads and runs off the roof plus it really does protect the canvas from mould and dirt imbedding back into the fibres.

I now use these products every 6 months to help protect the roof and keep it looking good as new!

Thank you for making such easy to use products that really do work!

Awesome product!...have been searching for ages to find a product that would remove increasing cloudiness from my MX5 NA vinyl window.  Finally found Renovo through MX5 specialist in Sydney.  Less that 1/2 hours work and window is good as new!  Most of the cloudy streaks were on the INSIDE of the window.  MX5 specialist said this is caused by gas build up from vinyl roof materials under our harsh climate.  Not a problem anymore!!  Thank you once again Renovo!!

Just a note which you may if you wish place in your "testimonials" page.

Having read about your product whilst searching for a replacement rear window for a Megane convertible on Ebay, I thought I would invest 15 pounds for your product rather than $476 NZ dollars plus P&P for a new rear window to NZ.

I must say that from placing the order over the internet on Dec 2nd it arrived in NZ on Dec 8th and I tried it that night on the rear Perspex window which was cloudy and slightly scratched. After a few applications over the past days, the window is now about 90% clear with still half a bottle left.

Thanks for a) a superb product, b) tremendous service UK-NZ in 6 days and c) an immediate rectification of a problem we have been trying to solve for 2 years.

Sincere thanks and season’s greetings.

I used the Hood cleaner, the Canvas restorer and the Weatherproofer on a Alfa Romeo Spider. It looked bad last year but over the winter it had been parked up near to a hedge and was even worse. The leaves had badly stained the canvas fabric, Algi had also started to form in yellowy green patches on the hood, it looked terrible. It was not leaking but it felt damp, even on a dry day.

I first gave the Hood cleaner a couple of applications and brushed it when dry between each application.

I then gave it two coats of the black colour restorer and then used the last waterproofer, about three coats, (after each coat was dry.)

The result was dramatic. The hood looks totaly brand new. The rain literally bounces off and the hood is dry to the touch 2 minutes after the rain stops falling.

I have not used the plastic scratch remover on the window yet but if it works as well as the other three then great.

Please use this testimonial to your excellent product in any way you wish to, its great...

I only used about half the contents of the containers, therefore I can do the same again if I wish.

A great product that does all it claims.

I wanted to let you know just how delighted I have been with both your service and products.

As you know I have an Mazda MX5 and the hood was looking dreadful, full of mould stains with a green haze over it.  I have tried other products and all that seemed to happen was the mould spread again after a few months. I was really hesitant about using other products however, as I saw so many reviews on your website I was almost tempted.

You were very helpful when I wrote to ask your advice, which filled me with the confidence to try Renovo.

The whole process of cleaning, renewing the colour and finally re-proofing was fool proof.  It was so easy to do and the results, well, they have been amazing.  In fact a neighbour was so impressed with the result that he asked me what I was using as a friend of his has the same problem with a soft top car. I was more than confident to recomend Renovo with no hesitation.

I will certainly be back for more products when needed.

Ahead of the Show Season, I have also revived the lacklustre appearance of the convertible hood. To bring it back to former glory, I turned to the highly recommended range of products from Renovo International (available directly or fromMX-5 specialists). £26.50 buys you a Vinyl Soft Top Kit that comprises of a Vinyl Soft Top Cleaner, that is a simple brush-on leave, agitate and rinse process to remove the dirt from the grain of the roof. A coating of Vinyl Ultra Proofer then seals the cleaned surface and restores a glossy, water-repellent finish to the hood. Hopefully you can see the before and after in the photo- the hood now looks as good as the day it rolled out of the dealership into the Japanese traffic. A treatment of the rear window with Renovo Window Polish has improved rearward visibility from the driver's seat too.

THEY ARE SUPERB PRODUCTS, and as the Mazda's roof is pretty tiny, there is plenty of the products left for future treatments.

Dear Renovo

Looking back through the rear view mirror on my 1999 SL320 I saw a very hazy image of the vehicles behind me. Having just removed the hard top and settled in for the delights of summer motoring it was obvious that the plastic windows in the soft top needed some attention.

The plastic was not brittle, cracked or badly marked, just difficult to see through clearly, but not enough to justify the expense of replacing the windows. I know that there are many products on the market that wax lyrical about how they can restore the clarity in cloudy plastic screens, so the next job was how to decide what to buy. The answer for me came from a copy of Autoexpress from July 2008, read whilst waiting to have my wife's car fixed at a local garage. The product being reviewed was Renovo Plastic Window Polish and the article convinced me that I should at least give it a try.

A bottle of the polish was duly purchased and I have to say that I was absolutely delighted with result, a rear screen that I could look through with greatly improved clarity. Applying the polish was simple, apart from the restrictions of working on the inside of the car. Patience and a little bit of 'elbow grease', working on a small area at a time, will achieve an amazing result that makes the effort well worthwhile.

Being slightly sceptical about manufacturers claims on car care products I have no hesitation in recommending this polish.

For a modest outlay of £9.99 (the price of a 50ml bottle and still some left for a couple more applications) my car looks smarter and most importantly is safer in terms of being able to see more clearly what is behind me. I have also been advised that a car can fail its annual MOT if the rear plastic screen is deemed too cloudy.

In my haste to try out the product my only regret was not taking a photo before I did the work so that I could compare the before and after effect.

Hi Renovo,

The full kit arrived.

I used it. I followed the instructions to the letter. Very simple!. The results are amazing. My roof was grey in places, particularly, where the bars are underneath. It is now a lovely uniform black colour. I should add, that my car, a BMW, is seventeen years old, and I would imagine, has never been treated before. The inside of the roof had white water marks on it. I had a little of the product left over, I used it, with perfect results.

Thank you very much.

My wife has a much-loved 2001 Renault Mégane cabriolet with a blue hood. Having no garage, it is parked on our drive and subjected to wind, dust and rain. This has resulted in discolouration and ingrained dust in the hood fabric. I have tried to clean it with an Autoglym product with very patchy results. Could you recommend a product or company to restore the colour and condition?

Driving a soft-top classic in the summer is fun, as you enjoy all-round vision. But in the winter the roof is up and seeing behind you can be problem due to a scratched and yellowing rear plastic screen.

All is not lost though as we have found a great little product on the market from Renovo called Plastic Window Polish, which lives up to its name.

We tested the polish on half of a cloudy and heavily scratched plastic window caused by the soft-top being folded for lengthy periods, and it really surprised us with the results.

It smelt and looked like embrocation (old sportsmen will remember this rubbing ointment) and we applied it using small circular strokes until it was clear. After a few minutes, we buffed it off with a clean micro-fibre cloth and stood back to note the difference.

It greatly reduced a long line of scratches and brightened up a yellowing and cloudy screen which was clearly noticeable form the rear-view mirror. Very handy to keep in the glovebox.

I used to own a MX5 (really loved it). Sold it to a guy who lives not too far away. Recently, I saw my ex car in the high street of Devizes and noticed the rear window looked new. I subsequently found out (from the new owner) that he had used a product called "Renovo".

Up until this point I had never heard of the product (shame on me). I now own a BMW Z3 and the rear window is getting a little misty. I cannot wait to try out my little pot of the wonder liquid on the BM. By the way you are not the only seller on the internet selling this product. The reason I purchased from your site is that your site is clear, easy to use and simply "user friendly". Thank you for that, I am 60 (look 50) and have an inbuilt fear of buying on line.

I received a bottle of your plastic window polish about 10 days ago. I was really busy at the time, and only had chance to try it out at 11pm! I rubbed at the outside of the window with a soft cloth (in a bit of a rush) and was SO disappointed that nothing really happened. I left it on the side in the kitchen for a while, then decided to try the inside of the window  this weekend. In daylight hours with a little more time and effort I tried again. Oh My Goodness, I dont know what I was doing wrong before, or if it was all the scratches on the inside, but I can now see out of my rear view window without having to guess the distance of the car behind me!!!

The window was misted up when I bought the car, and this is the first time I have been able to see through the window in 3 months!

I just bought a 3 year old MG TF, The rear screen was pretty scratched and not particulalrly clear. I did a bit of research on the web and found your Plastic Window Polish. Unlike one of your reviewers, who wishes he'd taken a 'before and after' picture, I decided to actually do it. One half cleaned, the other not cleaned. The difference is astounding. Most of the scratches have gone. The visibility and colour of the plastic has been transformed to virtually 'as new'. The plastic even feels more flexible. Overall I'm delighted and amazed how well this works. Highly recommended!

I had bought a Triumph Stag a while back and whilst it was generally in good repair, the same could not be said for the soft top. Unfortunately it was in storage for a number of years and subsequently the soft top ended up in a terrible state. The original colour was black but had faded so badly that it had turned a light cream colour. I was convinced that the purchase of a new soft top was inevitable.

I had received a good recommendation from a person who had used Renovo and decided to order it and try it out before I went to the expense of actually purchasing a new soft top.

I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived the following day.

That weekend I started with a brush and removed all the surface dirt. I was shocked to find that the hood was so bad that remnants of the original dye were so dry it came off like dust. Then with the Renovo Dry Cleaner, sponge and a bit of elbow grease it came up cleaner than I ever expected. After it dried out, I applied the Reviver which went on smoothly, was extremely effective and a pleasure to apply. As I went on, I could see the difference straight away and finally completed 2 coats. I then applied the Ultra Proofer the following morning and waited for it to dry. When I finally drove the car out of the garage and looked at the soft top in the daylight, I was nothing less than amazed.

It looked fabulous and certainly did not resemble the 30-year-old discoloured soft top I had started with.

Feeling thoroughly delighted with the results, I decided to tackle the last, and due to the importance of visibility, probably the most important part of the soft top, the Perspex window. Due to neglect, the Perspex window had stained rusty marks, paint, scratches and a slight yellow tinge to it. With a clean cloth I applied the Renovo Plastic Window Polish in a circular motion with medium amount of pressure, left it to dry and finally wiped away the residue. I repeated the same steps on the inside of the window and was thrilled at the results. It was absolutely amazing how the scratches and stains that I was convinced would probably still be there only cleaner, had actually disappeared.

I was over the moon. I had saved a small fortune in not having to purchase a new soft top, and the very same friends that had seen the soft top prior to restoration, were astounded when they saw it, having been convinced that I had bought a new soft top.

After having used the products myself, I have absolute faith in the results that the Renovo products achieve. In short, it is a wonderful product that fully lives up to it's promise and which a lot more people should try before going to the expense of purchasing a new soft top or Perspex for their vehicles'.

I have since discovered that Renovo products have many different applications and now next job is ...... the boat.

Best Regards,

“Totally convinced”

P.S. Now that the soft top looks so good it makes the rest of the car look as if it needs a repaint !!

I have just applied a coat of blue hood reviver to my 1992 convertible Jaguar XJS. Before applying the reviver the hood was looking faded and worn-out. It now looks almost brand new (if you ignore the odd scuff mark).

It is rare to find a product that actually does what its supposed to so I thought I would drop you an email and let you know how pleased I am.

I applied 2 coats of black colour to a mohair soft-top cover which had been badly marked by water.

It now looks like new - I am really impressed.

This year I decided to have a brand new roof.

However I saw your sales add in the JBA owners club Magazine, and thought "ok one more try".

I followed the your simple instructions on the kit supplied. I now have the roof I remember buying away back in 1989. I can even see through the rear window again. You have a first class product, I found the transformation to my top amazing, and it was so easy to use.

Just to let you know that I used the reviver on the inside of my MGF hood where an earlier stain and the attempted removal had bleached the canvas.

The result is most impressive and the product lives up to the testimonials I had read about it.

The hood is only two years old and the bleached patch was just at the front so only the affected panel was treated. The colour match was my greatest concern but it has turned out to be perfect.

The inside of the hood now looks new again thanks to your product.

Having purchased Hood Reviver and read the instructions, I painted on the liquid and it seemed almost perfect.

I repainted the top after about six months , but this time I used a small piece of recycled kitchen sponge, 3 inches square. Placing a small amount into a plastic pot, I dipped the sponge into the restorer (using plastic gloves), and allowed the liquid to draw off, before applying it onto the roof, using the sponge as if you are wiping the surface. The result was a very impressive finish.

I would like to recommend this product as I believe it could be the answer to my roof problems.

I see many other peoples projects so when recently a fellow club member recommended Renovo vinyl cleaner and proofer I decided to try it on my 1989 5.0 convertible.

...,following the easy and clear instructions I first cleaned the top, although already very clean the difference could be seen.

Once dry I proceeded to apply the proofer, what a difference!

I now have the perfect new factory look back, plus I have enough Renovo left to last for years, congratulations on a truly excellent product that does exactly what it says, I shall have no hesitation in recommending it to other Mustang owners in the next issue of the club magazine.
