top cleaner / treatment

[SeanZ4]

I've always used raggtopp on my convertibles but I had a nasty bird pood stain a few years ago that I couldn't get out. Finally tried a product called "poop-off" for all avian related stains. I got it at Petsmart or Petco or one of those big box pet stores. It worked! Just a thought...

Great info!
They also have a pet stain remover for carpets (Folex) that worked really well when our pooch (80 lb.) was on steroids and antibiotics.

+2 on RaggTopp, and I also use the RaggTopp Natural Horse Hair Convertible Top Brush from Autogeek to clean the top before treatment.

When it comes time to retreat the canvas, I hose my top down and use a wet, soapy lint-free microfiber cloth to wash away any spots. Then I let it dry thoroughly (a day or two), obsessively mask off a ridiculous amount of my car with kraft paper and painter's tape, and use the Porsche top treatment to re-waterproof it. My 8-year-old top still looks like new.
