Is your convertible top no longer tightly beading water, is it looking dingy, and maybe its starting to sun fade?\u00a0 Here is a yearly process just for you; and you\u00a0might have to do bi-yearly if you drive year round.<\/p>\n

A convertible auto is a prized possession and sought after by many, however many owners do not know the proper way of caring for one of the tops. \u00a0 There are two different tops; the rag top<\/a> made out of a impregnated canvas and the vinyl covering<\/a>.\u00a0 Each of these need a similar but different approach to caring for them.<\/p>\n

The makers of Raggtopp <\/a>offer the wise consumer the top of the line cleaners and re-protectors on today’s market.\u00a0 RAGGTOPP Convertible Care<\/a> products are exclusively tested and endorsed by the Haartz corporation, original equipment manufacturer of convertible topping for virtually every American and European convertible automobile manufactured throughout the world.\u00a0 If you own a boat they also produce a world class product of choice, bimini topp.<\/p>\n

First you need to clean the top.\u00a0 There is\u00a0one cleaner for the two types of tops: Raggtopp Convertible Top Cleaner – Fabric and Vinyl Tops<\/a>.\u00a0 Follow the directions carefully and it’s idiot proof.\u00a0 Use a soft, yet stiff brush to massage in the cleaner and allow it to dwell (20-30min), the slight agitation is what works loose the dirt that gets into the top.\u00a0 Rinse off the cleaner thoroughly and allow the top to COMPLETELY dry, error on the side of more time. Before applying the protectant, cover areas of your car you don\u2019t want overspray on, as this will save time later.\u00a0 While any overspray can be removed using a quick detailer, save the hassle. I like to apply thin layers of the protectant, more is not better, several thin coats are better than one soaking coat.\u00a0 More coatings can be applied after 15 minutes between each coat in warmer weather.<\/p>\n

Your convertible top is now well protected from the elements; sun, acid rain, bird bombs, grease, oils, and reduces cracking of the top.<\/p>\n

This is a job you can easily do since you now know the perfect product to take care of your convertible top.<\/p>\n

The vinyl top protectant can also be used on dash boards to help with UV degradation.<\/p>\n
