Care and Maintenance of your Flip Top
Your top is made of the finest materials available. To keep it looking new and for the maxi-
mum possible wear, it will need periodic cleaning and maintenance.
Washing: The top fabric should be washed often using soap, warm water and a soft bristle
brush. Rinse with clear water to remove all traces of soap.
Windows: Keep windows clean to avoid scratching. DO NOT use a brush on the windows!
Wash with a watersoaked cloth or sponge and a mild dishwashing detergent. NEVER WIPE
THE WINDOWS WHEN THEY ARE DRY. Be careful when cleaning snow or frost from the vinyl
windows since they are easily scratched and may crack at low temperatures. DO NOT roll the
sides or rear window in cold weather. The windows become stiff and will crack.
Zippers: Keeping the zipper cleaned and lubricated with a silicone lubricant will help prevent
damage and keep the zippers in a smooth working condition. If a zipper opens behind the
slider, the slider may have been spread apart.
This problem can usually be
repaired by using an ordinary
pair of pliers to bring the sides
back into parallel. Return slider
to the end of the zipper in the
normal Open position. Squeeze lightly at first
and test the zipper. If the zipper continues to
remain open squeeze more firmly with the
pliers and try the zipper again. Repeat this
procedure until the zipper operates correctly.
Water: Seeping through at the seams may be
stopped by applying 3-M Scotchgard® on the
inside of the seams. Rips in the fabric may be repaired with Bondex® iron on patches. Iron
the patches to the Inside of the top, carefully following the Bondex® instructions.
Snaps: Keep snaps cleaned and lubricated with silicone to help prevent snaps from sticking to
the studs. If a snap does become stuck to a stud, use a screwdriver and GENTLY pry apart to
prevent permanent damage to the snap or the top fabric.
