Exciting times...

Autoglym do a soft top cleaner and reproofer.

You can improve the rear window by giving it a good clean and then putting a coating of car wax/polish on both inside and outside face.:yesnod:

The window will come up a treat if you use Autoglym super resin polish on it.
Tip: go up & down on one side and side to side the other side to eaily show where you missed

While it's dry, give the hood a good going over with the nozzle attachment of your hoover (I use the one used for getting in all the nooks & crannies) - you'll be amazed at the dust that gets sucked out!

Then I normally use an Autoglym cabriolet kit from Halfords (think they have a 3 for 2 on all cleaning products at the moment - go stock up quick!).

It comes with a hard sponge, 1 bottle of cleaning solution and 1 bottle of proofing solution.

Give the whole roof a good going over with the sponge and cleaning solution, be careful on seams and obvious places. Once you've got a good lather and foam up over the whole roof, rinse off and repeat if necessary.

Let dry for a few mins - good time for a brew.

Now it's time to go over the roof with the proofing solution. Again, repeat if necessary leaving a few mins between coats.

Time for another brew - stand back and admire your clean roof.

Edit: Great news on your choice and enjoy your new car :drive:

Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to Halfords we go....

Mer polish (it's in a squareish blue bottle) works really well on the rear screen too - not cheap though, so make the most of the 3 for 2 offer

Happy cleaning!

Batteries changed in the remote fobs as well. They have been in there for 12 years so I reckoned they were on their way out. Great news - I have some Mer polish in the garage...back to cleaning...

How good does it feel driving it :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

And here is Y626ECK's first photo shoot (I doubt that it will be its' last)...








The first is from our bedroom window, the other from Caerlaverock nature trail.

Polished the back windscreen, inside and out and it worked a charm - I can see stuff behind me!!!!!

Looks good mate.
