Convertible Top Care

The number one question I get asked after completing a top install is what will I need to keep care of the convertible top, what do I use to clean it and do I need to apply any type of protectant to the top.

When it comes to caring for your newly installed convertible top, you will not need to apply protectant anytime soon as the manufacturer does this for you when the top is made.

Several key factors will help maintain its appearance and longevity. Here’s a detailed guide to address common questions.

1. What do I need to take care of the convertible top?

To maintain your convertible top, you’ll need a few specific tools and products, tailored to the material of the top (cloth/fabric or vinyl):

Basic items include:

A soft-bristle brush for removing dirt and debris.
Micro fiber towels to prevent scratches while cleaning.
Lint Roller Useful for regularly removing dust, pollen, or tree droppings from fabric tops.

Additional Care:

For plastic windows, use a non-abrasive plastic polish to prevent yellowing and scratches.
For glass windows, standard automotive glass cleaner works well.
