Can any Forum users help me locate Everflex vinyl roofing material to refurbish my roof? How much should I expect to have to pay for enough to retrim the roof panel and D post covers? What adhesive will I need? Anybody done this before? Useful hints appreciated...
Obviously a matter of personal taste, but does anybody agree that grey vinyl would look good on an Arctic White car with Sundym glass? Or should I stick to black?
 
Been searching the net for trim materials this morning and came up with this
for the Everflex roof covering.

They will probably be able to advise on suitable adhesives. There have been various articals in the classic car press on recovering vinyl roofs but the main trick seems to be mark carefully the centreline of the roof on the steel and the vinyl and then work from the centre outwards stretching gently to fit. Needs to be done in a warm atmosphere as well to ensure the vinyl stretches properly.

done one on a mini years ago.... ....warm summers day (remember them?) yep markl centre of roof front and rear ( strip of masking tape going down window then draw centre line) mark cover in same way, you can place material on roof, gently and smooth out to one side the other or both at once, making sure centres dont move.... try to get an adhesive with a long open time( does not go off quickly)

good luck -- might have to do my V8 later.....
