Care and Maintenance of your Bestop Product
Your Bestop product is made of the fi nest materials available. To keep it looking new and for the maximum possible life, it will need periodic cleaning and
maintenance.
Fabric:
The fabric should be washed often using soap, warm water and a soft bristle brush. Rinse with clear water to remove all traces of soap. Bestop
recommends using 303 CONVERTIBLE TOP Cleaning & Care Kit (part no. 30520) which is specially formulated to provide a total cleaning and protection system.
Windows:
Keep windows clean to avoid scratching. DO NOT use a brush on the windows! Wash with a water-soaked cloth or sponge and a mild dishwashing
detergent. Bestop recommends Bestop Vinyl Window Cleaner (part no. 11203-00), which safely cleans and protects vinyl windows and helps prevent UV damage.
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. Cracks caused by misuse in cold
temperatures are not covered under warranty.
Zippers:
Keeping zippers cleaned and lubricated with Bestop’s Zipper Cleaner (part no. 11206-00) will help prevent damage and
keep the zippers in 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 fi rst and test the
zipper. If the zipper continues to remain open squeeze more fi rmly 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.
