A Auto Upholsterer told Me that My Everflex Hood was simply worn out. He pointed out a shiny area in the hood. "If I ran My sewing machine threw this shiny area it would shatter like glass". The Hood was built by HofE in 1999 so it is almost 20 years old. As I store the Hood in back on top of the gas (petrol) tank I thought the shiny spot was caused by fuel being spilled. +4-4STR
