Maintenace of Wet Weather Gear

My Robin Hood wet weather roof has spent 99.9% of it's 12-year life scrunched up on the back of the car (see picture on the right of my signature).    Put it up today to check and apart from needing the perspex windows cleaned it is still in remarkably good condition.  But I did wonder if I should be treating it with something to ensure it remains relatively supple and doesn't crack ? (It is stored in a garage so rarely sees the sun).

Hi. My old vinyl roof needed some TLC as it was very faded and I felt it needed feeding like leather. I had some stuff in the shed called Polytrol colour restorer  so tried on a small area. Seemed good so applied it all over last summer. Came up like new and is still looking very good a year later. The car lives outside. Of course I can't guarantee it won't rot it in the long term but I'll stick with it.
