Just got a 1999 Celica GT Conv.
Looking for best way to clean the black canvas convert top. Also, looking for a good product to waterproof the canvas, as I understand it, the canvas is only water resistant unless treated with proofing. The autoparts stores out here stink, all I could find was "Blue Magic" Convertible cleaner and protectant. Judging by the looks of the bottle, this is not the product I was looking for for waterproofing. Any suggestions? |

ok, i have searched far and wide for a good cleaner to get tree sap spots out of it, iv'e used the blue majic but its only temporary, and nothing else has worked.l
as for the top.........its water proof. Under the canvas is a rubbery coat wich must be the "water proofing" thing they use...........as for the reason water still get in.... the calicas weather stripping is a peice of ****. the windows dont seal right so water tends to get in. |
