Soft top care?

[Nine8Six]

Tim, plain water only, and a brush with medium/soft hair. Rinse, let dry and apply a silicon base waterproof spray (the one tested for car soft tops with UV protective this & that). Although kept indoor, I still carry out this maintenance quarterly.

I never wash the soft top when I wash the car. I just rinse it and gently rub with one hand.
No soap, no high tech anything. Looking as new after 15 years

I used RaggTop my first year. I think the water repellent just didn't hold up very long. I had to reapply a few month later. The kit gives you plenty of cleaner but only a couple applications of repellent

Are you sure to use with silicone based spray product for ragtop, i've heard its not "breathable" for clothing ??
