Convertible Top Dos and Don'ts
After washing make sure that the top is completely dry before
lowering to avoid water stains on
interior materials and mildew damage to the rear window.
Mildew may occur more rapidly if the top remains lowered for
extended periods of time under
damp conditions. Mildew appears brownish in color and may give
off an undesirable odor. No
amount of cleaning can reverse this condition. If it occurs, the
window must be replaced.
Do not use brushes and automatic car washes, as they may abrade
the rear window, top material
and threads. Learn more at www.tbmobiledetailing.com
Do not use a dry cloth to remove even the slightest amount of
dust from a plastic rear window.
Use a soft cotton towel saturated with water and gently wipe in
horizontal and vertical directions.
Do not use a descraper, de-icing chemicals or sprays to remove
frost, snow, or ice from the
window. In an emergency, warm water not hot may be used. Hot
water may cause permanent
shrinking or warping of the window material.
Do nat use solvents such as: alcohol, nail polish remover, or
paint thinner on the back window or
top.
Do not use bleach, amonia, window cleaner, or all purpose house
cleaners on the rear window or
the top.
Do not use surface protectants, cleaners, polishes, waxes,
so-called "beautifiers", or any
compound or solution containing silicone.
Do not apply advertising stickers, gummed labels, or adhesive
tape to the windows. Such items
will damage the rear window.
