Default RE: Power Car Wash

Ask me and I'll say: Under no ciscumstance take a 'vertible through any auto wash!!! Wash by hand and use minimal soap on the top and rinse very well, leave no residue. High pressure air and water WILL slowly tear your top apart at the seams and heavy detergents, especially combined with solar exposure will cause the good canvas tops to fray and decay. A top can last many, many years if treated with love and respect.

I agree. I did this once, but won't again. The top was fluttering all over the place when the high-pressure air hit it.
