Soft top care?

[Heiko]

I agree with the 303 all the way.... I use the 303 fabric cleaner first, spray it down and give it a good scrub with a soft brush, then rinse it, let it dry and then apply the 303 Fabric Guard and let it dry in the shade or in the garage (not in the sun).

Afterwards I clean the plastic window with Meguiar's Clear plastic Cleaner #17 and then finish it up with Meguiar's Clear plastic polish #10... leaves it soft, no haze and crystal clear.

I do my top maybe twice a year, it rains a lot here, and the top always beads water like the paintwork.

Does the 303 cleaner take out the 303 Fabric Guard? And for the plastic window, do you polish by hand or with a polisher?
