Maintenance and Care
Appearance Care
Appearance
CAUTION
Dress the top once a month after washing
and drying it well. For best results, use a
water-based leather treatment or vinyl top
dressing.
•
•
Don’t use an automatic car wash.
Don’t use strong soap, chemical
detergents, or hot water, and don’t
wash the hardtop in direct sunlight
or when the surface is warm.
CAUTION
•
•
•
Some leather treatment products
can ruin the top’s gloss. Be careful
of the one you choose.
Thoroughly rinse with lukewarm or cold
water. Don’t allow soap to dry on the
finish.
Don’t get any car wax on the top.
If you do, remove it with a good
leather cleaner.
Waxing
Wax the hardtop when water no longer
beads on the paint. Always wash and dry
it before waxing.
Too much treatment on the top can
be as damaging as too little. Follow
the manufacturer’s directions.
Don’t overdo it!
CAUTION
•
Let the top dry completely before
lowering after applying treatment or
dressing.
•
•
Wiping off dust or dirt with a dry
cloth will scratch the finish.
Don’t use abrasive wax. This may
damage the protective coating and
discolor or deteriorate the paint.

Maintenance
Washing
NOTE
To help protect the hardtop’s finish, use a
soft cloth or sponge to wash it.
A spot remover to remove oil, tar, and
similar materials will usually also take
off the wax. Rewax these areas.
Insects, tar, tree sap, bird droppings,
industrial fallout, and similar deposits can
damage the finish if they are not removed
immediately. When prompt washing with
plain water is ineffective use a mild soap
made for use on vehicles.
