Default Taking Hardtop ON and OFF, simple or will some rattling need to be fixed?

My ap2 has a forbidden usa oem replica hardtop. Other than having to redo a few seals everything is working relatively well (other than a paint defect which happened during the shipping / transit process).

My main question is: If I take it off and then put it back on for a few days (just removing the top, NOT uninstalling all the brackets and hardware) and then put it back on is it relatively a 30 second process or will I have to worry about dealing with rattles or resolving small rattling issues.

The reason I asked is when I installed it I had to play with it a bit to get it in it's current 'optimal' state.

Any feedback and advice greatly appreciated. If this is NOOB, oh well

Atleast this is what Ive experienced since ive taken the top off atleast 10 times so far
Thanks :-)
