Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations for the best product to keep the hood clean and protected.

Hi!

The best products by far for the convertible top by my experience come from autoglym.

For about £20 halfords do a kit consisting of hood cleaning with an applicator sponge and hood protector.

Brush in the shampoo, and rinse with a hose or watering can. Leave to dry and apply the protector. You'll need a warm day and a dry night to let the hood protector dry.

Top tip, allow yourself plenty of time!

Hi MiniCabrio

Many thanks for your advice on the hood.

Just need to pick the right day to do it now before the winter.
