Is there anyway to restore the Frameworks ball return hoods (other then cleaning them and leaving faded spots), they dont have to be perfect. I would just like to try and maybe restore the ones that arent in too bad of condition. At 168$ each, any input would be helpful

What exactly are you referring to? What are you trying to accomplish or repair?

Better double check your price for the hood - I got $405 for it.

I am just tryin to restore the look of them, after cleaning them even with just water it leaves faded (cloudy white) spots, I have tried to have the paint matched but because its so light in color it keeps coming up as white in color and not the light grey i want it be!

Yeh, this is something I'm looking at doing. We have ball ramps that are covered in a black, rubber like, material. They're leaving black marks on the tops of the ball hoods, then at the bottoms too. Then you get kids/general morons kicking them leaving scuff marks.

After 4 years there are lighter patches where the marks have been cleaned off with something abrasive, so is there anything I can do to restore them? They're not hugely noticable BUT I notice them, so want to get rid of them

I'm looking at stripping the light grey paint off them and re-painting them with something protective.

Try T-Cut, it's worked well for me in the past. Give it a good polish when you've finished and they come up ok.
We've used it on the monitor housings too to restore the original colour, you'll be suprised at what they come up like.
