Best products and tools for....

Cleaning the convertible top. Mine has marks,and during rain sucks up water like it is in a desert. I have heard great review on Raggtop and 303 products,but where can I order them/pick up?
Anyone tried this?

Blink, the Ragg Topp is great. You can order at www.autopia.org. Even when my top was brand spanking new, it sucked-up the water too during a rain storm. Within the first few days of ownership, I applied 3 coats of Ragg Topp. Now it beads like crazy, and water just rolls off!

I use the Renovo fabric top cleaner, UV protectant top reviver and plastic window polish. Works great and hides the scratches in the window. I get it at Car Care Specialties

I've been using Raggtopp and it is very easy to apply and wipes off the paint with no drama. Water beads and the top dosen't absorb any substance....easier to keep clean! I also invested in the top cover....thought I might get value from it but haven't had occasion to use it yet....I've been lucky enough to find an accomodating tree and subsequent shade...choose your tree carefully as the sap can be a pain!

Does Ragg Topp need to be re-applied, after you use the Ragg Topp cleaner??
