Note I was making the mistake of washing the top before (soap with cloth & rubbing), now I just rinse it.

This was my first and only application of RaggTopp so far, I put it on after using their top cleaner as prep. I had a chance to speak with a VP from Haartz at a local PCA event (Haartz makes the canvas for Porsche and RaggTopp; they have a plant in the next town over from me, where he worked) and came away impressed with their products (and with some free samples in hand ). If I remember it correctly, RaggTopp protectant is the exact same finish applied to the factory top fabric.
