My sister just got a brand new beetle convertible. I was looking on the website and is says:

convertible top (cloth)

The process for her is going to be different than what we do for our cars, yes?

Can anyone give me some tips on what I should tell her needs to be done to keep her top in good shape?


**EDIT** BTW - my thoughts were Raggtopp for cleaning. But then would you do 303 after that? Or is the raggtopp enough? And I saw one of the posts below about the Sky that covered the whole car. Is that something that she will have to work into the process?

 

She'll need the protectant for Cloth tops, it is sort of like Scotchguard. Both 303 and Raggtopp make a protectant for cloth. The easiest way to apply it is to spray it on. It is also best to mask off the parts you don't want sprayed.

 

Ok, that is what I had thought. Thanks! Looks like I'm gonna have to spend a weekend showing her how to actually wash a car now.

 

good luck with that, ihave noticed that not very many girls grasp the concept of how to properly clean their car. I only know a couple who actually know what they are doing.
