Unhappy Roof Decals

Hi my current roof decals have began to fade and crack, I am putting money aside to get them replaced, but is there something I can use to make it look any better until it is replaced. The vinyl looks faded and dry

Personally I would remove it while you are saving for teh replacement

Get it off give teh roof a good clean that way you solve both problems for now and when you get a new one have a word with Mini Pirate!

best to use a hairdryer to help unstick the stickers then a good wash & polish. Use some white spirit on any stcky marks that there may be left. Always use a good polish after.

Is it ok to use White Spirit on the paintwork?
