Convertible tops are not like the rest of your car’s exterior. the vinyl can absorb stains which take more that a simple wash to get rid of .
avoid using abrasive cleaners such as scouring powders when you clean your convertible top. these products will clean the surface now but the top will begin to show signs of damage later on. It is wise to use a high quality cleaner specifically designed for vinyl convertible tops. These cleaner should be applied in the shade and the top should be cool to the touch.
When cleaning the plastic rear window, do not use a glass cleaner, since the chemicals in these can actually damage the plastic. also dont press to hard no matter how soft the towel your using is as you might scratch the plastic. There are products available designed specifically for cleaning plastic windows. Be sure to apply these cleaners in a side to side motion since these windows are very prone to swirl marks well. To make your top look new use a lint roller at the end of every wash to pick up any lint your towel has left behind.
