Hi
My old coachahome has orange rooflights. Or at least it should have, they've faded a bit over the last 44-years and so now have a rather patchy appearence.
They're made of perspex and I was wondering if you can get some kind of paint to refresh them? - I vaguely remember seeing a paint that was supplied for 'restoring' indicators back to amber many years ago, and I guess this would do it(?). You used to be able to get paint for car headlamps that turned them yellow (to mimic French cars of the time) - even that would do as they'd be all one colour...
Anyone know of a supplier of such a paint? or maybe someone knows someone that earns a living restoring old coaches that have an idea?
Thanks for any help
