As mentioned in this thread earlier, I know several folks who tried to dye the inner ply of a top; the problem was that the dye bleed thru into the white top ply. That doesn't mean there isn't some dye or technique that will work, just that (as far as I know) it hasn't been found yet.
If someone had a scrap piece of new top material and a fabric similar to what is used for lining it might be interesting to see if the fusible webbing or powder is viable. One question would be if anything would stick to the top material or is there some kind of waterproofing treatment on the underside. Assuming it did stick, other questions would be is the fusing temp low enough to bond without damage to the top material and will it fold. Might be a worthwhile experiment.
