increasing decreasing the alpha of renderer

Hey guys I can’t figure out why the alpha value of the object wont increase/decrease. I had another example in a different script that worked fine. Now I’m trying a similar version with a script attached to the object itself. (fade and buttonDone are both set to false in start function). Please take a look. Update block;

		//Fade out the button.
	if(fade == true && buttonDone){
		var RGBA = this.renderer.material.color;
		var valA = this.renderer.material.color.a;
					var valR = this.renderer.material.color.r;
					var valG = this.renderer.material.color.g;
					var valB = this.renderer.material.color.b;
		if(valA > 0){
			valA -= .035f;
			RGBA= new Color(valR, valG, valB, valA);
		
		if(valA <= 0){
			valA = 0;
			buttonDone = false;
            fade = false;
			Destroy(this);
			}
		}
	}
		//Fade in the button.
	if(fade == false && !buttonDone){
		var valA = this.renderer.material.color.a;
		var RGBA = this.renderer.material.color;
					var valR = this.renderer.material.color.r;
					var valG = this.renderer.material.color.g;
					var valB = this.renderer.material.color.b;
		Debug.Log(RGBA + " alpha: " + valA);
		if(valA < 1.0f){
			valA += .035f;
			RGBA = new Color(valR, valG, valB, valA);
		
		if(valA >= 1.0f){
			valA = 1.0f;
			buttonDone = true;
			}
		}
	}

if it is a loop you can use the Animation Editor in unity and play that when ever that you need!
