Ragtop!!!
With my new 2012 GT Ragtop, anyone know how to take care of these new cloth convertable tops....Like cleaning, cleaning solutions that won't hurt it, and how to dry it after washing it? (I have not read the owners manual on this yet, however I will this next weekend) Looking for some ideas in the mean time!
Thanks in advance
Phil

I use RaggTopp, they have a complete care kit. As for drying I just use The Absorber Synthetic Drying Chamois, very easy to dry after using the RaggTopp protectant.

I recommend the 303 fabric top care kit (assuming you are talking about a GT premium top, which is cloth). The 303 protectant is legendary.
I garage-kept mine, and so I didn't need to wash the top but about every 3rd car washing, depending on bird droppings. The less you scrub on it the better. When you do clean it use a soft horsehair or boar's hair brush (something mucho softo) with the cleaner, following the directions. Once the fabric completely dries, you hit it all over with the 303 protectant (use scrap cardboard pieces to protect the surrounding paint & glass) and it's good to go for another month or even two.

Looks like another good option to consider!
