I need to re-colour/water proof the top on my Nippy. I recall Cuprinol Ducksback being the recommended treatment, but cannot seem to find "black" available from suppliers. What colour is recommended? I have tried the search option for previous posts, without success.

John,
Have a look at "Renovo" hood reviver I have used this product many times,
for the best results you will need the cleaner and froofer as well.

A froofer? now that's definitely got to be added to the tool box. Where do I get one?

What happened to Austin's own recommendation of black boot polish?

I have tried most black duck renovating dies but find they fade within 2 years. Modern mohair hood fabric is lighter, stronger, stays black and looks authentic.

Hi Peter,
Well done for spotting the deliberate error!

John H , Aphone box is a sort of public convenience with a communication device in it.
