CLEANING PRODUCTS: Haartz recommends RAGGTOPP Cleaner, RAGGTOPP Premium Convertible Top Brush, and RAGGTOPP Protectant. Available online.
WASHING: Washes with low pressure water jets and hanging cloths provide a more gentle cleaning action. Those using heavy barrel brushes could damage the top material. Haartz recommends hand washing in compliance with local laws and regulations.
Clean Normal Stains: Hand washing in shade or partial shade is best (try to avoid direct sunlight). Bird and tree droppings, as well as other loose particle matter, should be removed promptly from the topping material. Vacuum the top with a brush attachment and rinse the vinyl top thoroughly with water to remove loose particle matter. This will also prevent dirt and other debris from being redeposited during the cleaning process. After rinsing the top thoroughly, apply RAGGTOPP™ Cleaner* evenly over the entire top. . RAGGTOPP™ Cleaner works best on a wet surface. Allow the cleaner to remain on the top surface for 10 to 20 minutes (avoid direct sunlight) and then scrub the top lightly with the RAGGTOPP™ Premium Convertible Top Brush, a soft nylon brush, or a terry cloth rag. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water until no remaining soap foam is observed. Repeat this procedure for very soiled tops. Allow the top to dry before use.
Clean Stubborn Stains: The vinyl coating itself does not promote mildew growth, but mildew may grow on dirt and other matter that is not removed from the top. For stubborn cases, apply a solution of no more than 1/2 cup (4 oz. / 120ml) bleach (5-8% Sodium Hypochlorite solution...Clorox/Dan Klorix brand or similar) and 1/4 cup (2 oz. / 60ml) RAGGTOPP™ Cleaner per gallon (3.8 liter) of water. Rinse thoroughly with cool to cold water. Please note that excessive soaking with bleach solution can weaken seam threads. Rinse the entire top to remove all of the bleach solution from the vinyl, and riThe vinyl coating itself does not promote mildew growth, but mildew may grow on dirt and other matter that is not removed from the top.

Rinse the entire top to remove all of the bleach solution from the vinyl, and rinse the car body to prevent streaking on painted, chrome or other surfaces. Repeated cleanings may be necessary.
Additional Tips: Properly formulated and coated vinyl is waterproof so additional treatment is unnecessary. To help protect and preserve the beauty of vinyl topping, you can follow the cleaning process with an application of RAGGTOPP™ Vinyl Protectant. Simply spray the protectant on the topping material and wipe dry with a clean cotton cloth. Reapply after each cleaning or as necessary. Do not use top dressing cleaners or conditioners containing silicones, organic solvents, petroleum distillates or plasticizers as these may permanently harm the top material’s vinyl coating.
