Winter cometh, and id like to keep mr soft top looking supple and new.

There's some stuff that most people use (cant remember the name) but tricky to get hold of.

Any online places for some good stuff?

303 is apparently a bit "runny" and can be a bitch to get off the paintwork if any overspills.

I use Renovo, and very happy with it.

The Ultra Proofer is a tenner......don't bother with the cleaner - just clean with car shampoo as normal.

I used the renovo stuff. Always happy with it. Comes with a cleaner, a waterproofer and a rear screen plastic polish if you have a <02

You get loads of it too. Enough for a few jobs. Use a sponge or a paintbrush. I would opt for the paintbrush as it makes it dead easy.

I got RaggTopp from here. It's the 29.50 Euros. You need the cleaner (black bottle) and the protector (white bottle).

I've used it a couple of times and it seems easy enough to use and cleans the roof well enough.

Stories of the difficulty of applying 303 are vastly exaggerated! Its easy. I've been using it since the car was new - granted, even now its only four months old! But its really not that difficult with a bit of care - which I'm sure you'd be taking anyway if you were doing things like avoiding swirl marks on the paintwork.

A small amount applied all over the roof with a sponge applicator, left for half an hour, buffed off with a mf. Easy. Oh, hang on, that's what it says in the Tech FAQ! I think I got mine from Clean & Shiny. Very good service. Even sent the sponge applicator as part of the package.

With Raggtopp. Works well and leaves none of the horrible marks you get with 303 (on a black car)

tried a few and Raggtopp is nicest. I clean about once a year and protect 2-3 times. However my car is stored in a garage. I'd do it more frequently if it was street parked.

I just sent the euro's with my order by post. Product came back promptly with the change in the box!

I may be looked apun as a mere amateur but I use Autoglym hood protection and I've found it to be brilliant!
