My Almond/Huntsman 3500S has a damaged vinyl roof and I'd like some advice on how to repair it. It seems that just before i bought the car it was stored in a building which caught fire. Plastic, either from the roof or some sort of cover melted and dripped onto the car. The previous owner managed to remove most of the plastic from the paint and i replaced all the damage door to glass and rear window to deck panel seals. The only remaining damage is to the vinyl roof. The plastic melted through to bare metal in places and scorched and discoloured the vinyl in others. Is there a product available that could fill the holes and recolour the vinyl. I would also consider chaning the colour to black as i think it suites the almont paint better. If not where can i buy new vinyl and glue (i live in Ireland but could have it shipped). I've also considered swapping a complete roof and side panels from a scrapped car, is this viable. The car is in good nick but not perfect, and to be honest i'll probably sell it at some point to concentrate on my other cars so i'm not interested in spending huge amounts of money.
Cheers,
Dave.
