Hello Andy,
Sorry for late reply, We used a fabric dye to re-color the hood, A light green to replicate a moldy look then highlighted the wear areas with an airbrush, If you don't want to dye yours this way you can used the old tea bag way, Just collect a load of used tea bags then leave them to soak in water in a container that's big enough to layout your hood then leave for a day, And once taken out and dried you will achieve the old used look,
Hope this helps, Chris.
