Re: Product for a converitable, its fabric.

RaggTopp made my 10 year old faded top look brand new. Mine was vinyl but I'm sure their fabric stuff is good too. It won't run in the rain.

Re: Product for a converitable, its fabric.

303 and Ragtopp both offer a two step kit that are the best in the business. Clean and protect.

Re: Product for a converitable, its fabric.

I've owned multiple convertibles both vinyl and fabric and Ragtopp is the way to go.

I've also taken a liking to Chemical Guys Fabric Guard for my fabric tops. Doesn't have the staying power as the Ragtopp stuff, but is good for the money and in between the twice yearly "good stuff" treatment.

Re: Product for a converitable, its fabric.

I recently used RaggTopp on my '89 Mercedes 560SL fabric top and was very satisfied, but I'm also a fan of 303 products.

Re: Product for a converitable, its fabric.

I am also looking for something for my fabric top, to protect it I have been looking at several products. The most common are 303 HTFG and Raggtopp, but I am also looking at the CarPro Fabric and Leather, GTechniq I1 and Swissvax Lotos. Maybe you want to check them out also.

Re: Product for a converitable, its fabric.

I've used 303, raggtop, and recently using CarPro Fabric & Leather.

Between the 303 and raggtop I prefer 303. I just got the CP Fabric & Leather in a few weeks ago and looking forward to coating my Sky's top in it. I've only had the chance to coat the interior but so far thrilled with it. I'll be doing the top soon Jim, I think I'm going to buy some of this Renovo cleaner you told me about. I've never been fully satisfied with the 303 or raggtop cleaners.

Re: Product for a converitable, its fabric.

Keedo, I just realized you mentioned you were looking for a cleaner or shampoo for it. For this most car washes will work well. Avoid ones that have excess wash and wax or crap in them that will attract dust. After coating the fabric it won't matter so much and a gentle amount of soap easily keeps it clean.
