I want the car to look nice for HMS tomorrow, and we've had a lot of that green gunk falling from the trees, so I wanted to make sure my soft top looked nice. So, I took it off the car (that took FOREVER, hope I can get it back on!) and put it in the washing machine, low cycle, used Woolite and cool water. Now, I want to iron it so it looks nice. What setting on the iron do you guys use? Do I want to use steam or no steam? I don't think it matters on the steam, since it's PVC (vinyl), but the heat setting is probably pretty important.

A quick reply would be great, cuz my car is naked without the top! Thanks!

 

You took your soft top off?!?!?!?

That is the first time I have heard of that!!!

And now you are about to iron it?!?!? Again... first time I have ever heard of that!

Well.. my first recommendation is not to even iron it... but if you really want to...my next recommendation is to iron it on a very low setting...

What I have done, and what is usually recommended is to wash the top (while it is on the car) with a product like Roll Off or 303. This process also protects the vinyl.

I just hope I am reading this post wrong, and I am totally misunderstanding you.

 

HUH?

 

That's about all I can say!

 

uh oh

sounds like a big mistake....

 

April Fools. (No fun if I did it on April 1, when you would have expected it!)

 

lol, vrm vrm, you are crazy. kinda corny but very unexpected.

 

Yeah, I'm in one of "those" moods. Made you do a double-take though, right?

 

Soon as I saw the woolite and the washing machine I knew he was so full of it!

Plus your not THAT knowlegable about cars!

 

The hardest part was getting my glass window to actually fit in the washing machine. That's an advantage you plastic window guys have!
