Default Soft top

So I recently put a new soft top on my Sahara, love it by the way, should have done it 2 years ago. Now my question to you is what should I do as far as maintenance is concerned thanks

Definately zipper lube. ( like $12 from dealership ) I got a plastic window cleaner/ protectant from the dealer for about the same price. Only use a microfiber towell on windows. A regular towell will scratch them. I've heard a lot of people use aerospace 303 protectant to prevent the canvas from fading. And I'd only use a touchless car wash, or do it yourself. It's really easy to scratch those windows.

Wash it, drive it. 303 is a great protectant. Oh yeah drive it.....You don't have to do anything really.

jk54, thanks for posting, I had the same thoughts as well, since I put the soft top on for summer. I was worried that I would scratch up the windows while hand washing them
