Does anyone know if there is a place you can ship your acrylic top to, to have it refurbished?
You could try "County Corvette" in Pennsylvania.
Maybe also reach out to Mid America Motorworks.
I didn't see anything for targa/acrylic top refurbishing from either of those vendors, but I found Corvettetops.com that specializes in it. $450 for what I need, plus shipping.
I'm going to ask them if they can go a shade darker than what I have to help with heat. On longer drives it can become a hot incubator and I don't have a solid top. I may also look into some type of window tinting, but that wouldn't solve the crazing.
Years ago I bought a static cling film from MidAmerica for "The Beast". It was a polka-dot pattern that helped a bit. Didn't blow away either when the windows were open. This is similar to what I had.
Wonder if this might work as an alternative.

This is a great idea. A friend told me about a product like this, but I had forgotten about it. For about 10% of the price, I'm going to try it. I ordered one last night. - Thank you!
