Applying RaggTop

Hi, has anyone any tips on applying Raggtop?

I was considering using a foam paint brush, because of over spray concerns. But, before I go out there and do something stupid.... I would love to hear solutions from the community.


many thanks

I just use a towel to cover the windows and body in the area that I'm spraying. The overspray is easy to wipe off.

Just did mine last weekend. No worries man...Just apply accordingly and use a microfiber towel to wipe off any overspray.

Long time Raggtop user -- as noted, just cover the windows and you should be fine. Raggtop is certainly a very good product but I switched a couple years ago when I noticed that my patio umbrella was essentially the same fabric as my car top. I use the same fabric Scotch guard on my umbrella as I do the car top -- 1/2 the price seemingly equal protection as far as I can tell. Others may disagree but I'm happy with the trade off.
