Convertible Top Cleaning

Hi guys I have a 03 Carrera Cab with a light grey top. Was wondering if any suggestions on cleaning this. It has some spots on it but I heard these tops are very sensitive so wondering if any one has experience this. Thanks

I usually clean it with the soap and water during washing. If there's staining or wax residue, etc. try 303 convertible top cleaner or Autoglym Interior Cleaner and a microfiber towel. Hope this helps.

best to check in with the deakership. See what they recommend. Steam cleaners work wonders though.

Raggtop is endorsed by Haartz and Porsche uses Haartz to manufacture their convertabile tops. Make sure you clean the top very well and allow to dry 100% before applying the fabric protectant, apply 3 coats with enough time between coats (temp. and humidty will affect flash times usually 10 to 30 min) for your first application which on a 911 1 can is just enough. Have a damp mf towel handy to wipe off any overspray or use plastic sheeting on the car and CARREFULLY cut out the top. Raaggtop will repel water and will not allow dirt to penetrate the fabric you will be very happy with the results.
