May want to read some old threads in this section of the site, many people have tried many things to improve look of faded cladding.........

A slightly tougher and professionally applied finish like Line-X may work for you? As with any finish the prep work is most important. Some say the bed liner type finish works best if you remove cladding and apply to both sides so it wraps around edges. Everybody loves whatever finish they use at first, it is much harder to find owners happy 5-10 years later. Each finish has pros and cons, cheap finishes need reapplication, expensive takes time and labor. Paint may look good but tends to scratch.
