I hope you'll post your experience.
I'd like to keep mine looking good as long as I can. The doggone things are

Re: cleaning soft top
Good to hear Frank, thank you!
Over the years I've gotten a little gun shy about buying every product I
could find for soft tops.
I had two Mustang verts, one with a white top. I finally got burned out on
trying to find just the right miracle product and stuck with what I knew to
be tried and true.
