			 I'm getting ready to clean a Boxster soft top and would like comments on my plan: 
			
			
					
		1. The top is in very good, not new though, condition. 2. Going to wash with auto soap and use a nylon brush to loosen the dust 3. Let dry, then spray with scotchguard ( is there another product here I should use ?) 4. Plastic window; fair to good condition. Need suggestions here Thanks, Jim  |

			 Mild soap rinsed off right away will be okay, buddy of mine has an auto upholstery business and we have done a few boxster tops, original tops are of very good quality material. Don't get aggressive with a brush or you wil have a spot that looks different, also top will tighten up a bit as it dries, that is a good thing, don't let it dry in direct sunlight.
