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? |

This is a really old topic, but I've never seen it before haha. But I haven't had any problems with my top leaking at all for the past 4 years I have owned the car. I can spray water at it all day and it will hold up just fine
 . Just one question though. My top is starting to fade just a little, and I think it could be darker. Is there any type of product we could use to possibly dye or make our cloth tops look dark black again? Were they ever dark black, I've never seen a brand new convertible top on a celica before. All the products I've seen have been for vynil tops. --------------------  |
