Doh!!!

Does Armor All really cause shrinkage of
vinyl??  (He asks as he has recently soaked
his Midget tonneau...)  I might have
one for your collection in a few months!

I've been there and have 2 perfectly good tonneaus sitting in my garage 
waiting for that magical tonneua growth hormone to be available.  I suspect 
the PO used Armor All on them (see previous note) which made them shrink in 
the first place.  I figure that by the time I can afford to add a Midget to my 
collection my shrunken tonneaus will be perfect!!!

Is there a way to stretch a tonneau that's shrunk over time?  I can get it to 
fit left to right, I can't seem to make it all the way to the snaps on the 
dash. 
(I know, a DPO installed snaps instead of studs/lift the dots.)  Even after 
setting it out in the sun to heat up, it's still at least an inch shy.  Thanks 

in advance.
