Default washing under top

When the top is 3/4 down and you can look between the top and body, mine is filthy. Can I hose this out or not a good idea.
Thanks.

i wouldnt hose it out because you will get water in the car, but you could take some cleaner and clean it and then wipe it down with a damp rag. i assume you are talking about the part that is covered by the rear molding when the top is up.

I agree. Blast it with the compressor. That is what I would do.

Yep, air compressor or a shop vac. Then wipe it out if it's still too dirty for you. DON'T hose it out. That would be bad.

Mine has some dirt building up along the topin theinsulated partof the windshield where windshield and top come together. I was just going to try to clean it out with a slightly damp rag but compressed air sounds like a much better idea, thanks!
