Hi, inexperienced with soft top I am looking for experience with soft top care, washing, tricks, etc.

Thank you

 

I have heard that "Rag Top" is the best.

Also, Amazon has it on sale.

just found out that the best way to remove lint from the top after washing is to use masking tape made to look like a sheet and just use it as you would a lint remover for clothes..

 

I use a tape called 'Tuck Tape'for removing dust and lint....it used in construction.Way stickier than masking tape,just peel a bit off roll backwards on the roll and use it exactly like a lint roller.Works GREAT !

 

lint roller for dust, pollen

wash it w/o soft most of time. a few times a year, use soap and a gentle wash mitt. after drying, use a protectant like ragg top or porsche's convertible top water proofer.

 

ragtop when it stops to beads, a roller lint brush or the red lint brush

 

Do you always hand wash ?

 

Is there any other way?

 

Yes, always.

 

Always hand wash with a microfiber wash mitt.
Pre-treat with RaggTop sealer and use the RaggTop wash, your top will last a long long time.
You definitely want to take the time to do the RaggTop sealer, really makes a big diff with keeping stains off.

1. wash top with RaggTop cleaner, let dry completely
2. mask off car with big towels and blue painters tape
3. completely coat top with RaggTop sealer, let dry
4. re-treat annually



Cheap on amazon.com for the sealer / cleaner kit:
