Default convertible top care

Anybody remember what that stuff is called to rub into the rubber seals every few months? I wanted to order it today but forgot the manual.

The grease also attracts more dust and dirt...

I didnt see the grease stuff listed on their website. Am I just missing it? I wanted to get some of that also along with some 303? I think it is called to protect the top.

The Shin-etsu grease is listed just below the "rear brake caliper rebuild kit" and right above the wiper inserts. It's the 4th item up from the beginning of the "merchandise" section.

You can find 303 here: http://search.shopping.yahoo.com/search/al...ant&tool=0&did= (I don't believe that H&A stocks this as it's not a Honda or HOnda Recommended item). I have some, but haven't heard of anyone putting it on the top. Don't forget (in case you didn's see this elsewhere - and because they sell 303 for fabric too) that the S2000 top is vinyl, not cloth.
