Care and Maintenance of your MasterTop® Product:

Your MasterTop Fastback made of the finest materials available but to keep it looking new and for the 

maximum possible wear, it will need periodic cleaning and basic maintenance. The main threat to your 

soft top is pollutants, dirt and grime. By keeping your top clean you will prolong the life of your top.

We recommend the following to keep your top like new:

Washing:

The soft top fabric should be washed often using a mild soap, warm water and a soft bristle brush. You 

can also use special soft top cleaners available on our Distributors websites. Make sure that after clean-

ing you rinse with clear water to remove all traces of soap to avoid residue.

Water/Fabric:

In the event of seeping through the seams, 3M Scotchgard® may be applied on the inside of the seams 

to stop the seeping. 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.

Windows:

It is very important that you keep your Soft Top windows clean! Use a mild soap and water solution to 

gently clean your windows. NEVER wipe your windows clean with a dry cloth! Dust and dirt on a dry cloth 

can scratch your win- dows causing “fogging” and permanent damage. When removing your windows, 

store them with a towel. If frost or ice forms on the outside of your windows during the winter, DO NOT 

use an ice scraper to remove this frost. Over time you will see small micro scratches in your windows 

which are natural wear and tear. These Micro scratches can be “polished” out using the window polish 

available at your MasterTop Distributor.

Zippers:

Keeping the zipper cleaned and lubricated with a silicone lubricant (available online) will help prevent 

damage and keep the zippers in a smooth working condition. If zipper opens behind the slider, the slider 

may have been spread apart. This problem can usually be fixed 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 zipper. If the zipper continues to remain open squeeze more firmly with 

pliers and try the zipper again. Repeat procedure until your zipper operates correctly.
