Restoring a faded red spray hood

[Burnham Bob]

Any suggestions? I will first use patio magic to remove the green algae then clean thoroughly - any suggestions for the best cleaning agent? I know I can get stuff that paints on to restore car soft tops in dark red but helpful suggestions would be welcome

Used that on my old spray hood to recolour it from bright red to burgundy, 2 years on it's still the same colour (ish) and whilst I did'nt like the colour - a bit late of course after the fact - it's been a satisfactory dye.

Red is the very worst colour for degradation by U/V - be it grp gelcoat, paint or canvas - so if you can restore it at all it may well be a case of ' go for it - nothing to lose'.

Renovo products are well thought of. I've used the blue to good effect and I see they do a red one also.
Maybe the ne you have tried but if not might be worth a go.
