Hi all

Had a bit of petrol spill on my blue hypalon avon tubes and faded the color on that spot.
Is there any dye or treatment i can get to renew the color?

Not that I'm aware of (but usually petrol isn't too bad unless the UV got hold of it and was left for a long time) ...though someone may.
Prevention is best ....and quick re-actions to clean up immediatly is key.
As is liberal/regular application of Hyperlon cleaner/treatment such as Aerospace 303 or similar...which tends to leave a non (or less) absorbent film on the surface.
Depending on where and how BAD it is ...it may be able to cover with a strategically place wear patch(es) or rubber handle(s)
