I wished my canvas doors looked that good. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to get sun bleached canvas dark green again?

Canvas Doors
Hi,
In reference to the lead picture and the color of the doors: I have an extra set which didn't look too great (bleached out color, etc) so I took some Rapco spray paint and painted them. Seven years later they still look great and the canvas has not gone south. They are used all the time.

Thanks for the suggestion Lee.Now does anyone have a suggestion , other than total replacement, on how to clean up the Eisenglass in the doors? Mine have sopme stains that normal soap and water won't remove.
