Convertible top color
Is it possible to use 'dye' to change a white top to black ? Has anyone successfully done this ? How quickly did it fade ?

yes yes and quickly
use SEM trim black...dont pour it on..too much build up it will flake...just get it closed out...dont worry about gloss just enough it covers and in the first 2 hrs armour-all the crap out of it what ever the armour all does it makes its flexible and wont flake...keep it arour alled for the rest of its life or it will peel and flake ive done it on drivers seats and it hasnt worn thru in 10+ years...top lasted about 2 years once it pops the roof will be ugly and need replaced...just sayin

Depends on the age of the top...redyed a white one white here in FL...lasted about 1-1.5 yrs...FL sun is brutal on them.....may be cheaper to wait and get a new black one when you can for best results.
