Can anyone share their opinion or information on cleaning a convertible top.
I had one of my convertibles parked under another one of my cars which was on a drive on hoist and it leaked three small drops of transmission oil on the top before I start trying to remove the oil I thought I would ask first can you help in my dilemma?
Cheers Ron.

Thank you Blue Blood for answering my request for help on the cleaning of my Convertible top.
The Convertible top is of canvas & is less than a yr old.
Cheers Ron.

Ron check with your local Ford store, they have a top cleaner for the 03/04 Mustang Cobras and the 02 - 05 Birds, both were canvas topped, maybe other models as well.

Look for a product called RagTop(sp). There are formulations for canvas and for vinyl. Available online and at some parts stores (O'Reilly's etc)
