I've got some little patches of green on one side of the roof (on and around the velco parts on the drivers side).

Does renovo remove this or can anyone recommend something else?

Thanks
:)

Yep, try the Renovo car shampoo. If you don't want to or don't have time you could try re waterproofing with thompsons and agitating it with the brush when you reapply and wiping the residue off. I would reccoment the Renovo kit but using Thopmson's water seal instead or the Renovo proofer.

Welcome young Jedi, use the force but not coming off a roundabout in the wet

I use autoglym cleaner on mine which seems to do the job, guess that car has been sitting about for a while to get the green stuff on it.
Check the velcro on the inside is nice and taut aswell as the outer one so water doesnt sit in the outer bit.

Rest is fine only the right hand side near the velco is effected, I think it was probably parked under a tree at one point.

It didn't, 'cos it was dark by the time I'd finished my tea. Had a late meeting at work tonight, so it'll get done over the weekend, now.
