Your QuadraTop accessory is made of
the finest materials available but to keep
it looking new and for the maximum
possible wear, it will need periodic
cleaning and basic maintenance. The
main threats to your soft top are pollu-
tants, dirt and grime. By keeping your
product clean you will prolong its life.
We recommend the following to keep
your top like new:
Washing: The soft top fabric should be
washed often using a mild soap, warm
water and a soft bristle brush. You can
also use special soft top cleaners avail-
able on our website at quadratec.com
Make sure that after cleaning you rinse
with clear water to remove all traces of
soap to avoid residue.
Zippers: Keeping the zipper cleaned and
lubricated with a silicone lubricant
(available online) will help prevent dam-
age and keep the zippers in a smooth
working condition. If zipper opens be-
hind the slider, the slider may have been
spread apart. This problem can usually
be fixed by using an ordinary pair of pli-
ers to bring the sides back into parallel.
Return slider to the end of the zipper in
the normal Open position. Squeeze
lightly at first and test zipper. If the zip-
per continues to remain open squeeze
more firmly with pliers and try the zip-
per again. Repeat procedure until your
zipper operates correctly.
Windows: It is very important that you
keep your QuadraTop windows clean!
Use a mild soap and water solution to
gently clean your windows. NEVER
wipe your windows clean with a dry
cloth! Dust and dirt on a dry cloth can
scratch your windows causing “fog-
ging” and permanent damage. When re-
moving your windows, store them with
a towel between the panels/rear win-
dows to protect them from damage. If
frost or ice forms on the outside of your
windows during the winter, DO NOT
use an ice scraper to remove this frost.
Over time you will see small micro
scratches in your windows which are
natural wear and tear. These Micro
scratches can be “polished” out using
the window polish available at
Quadratec.com.
Water/Fabric: In the event of seeping
through the seams, 3M Scotchgard
®
may be applied on the inside of the
seams to stop the leak . Rips in the fabric
may be repaired with Bondex
®
iron on
patches. Iron the patches to the Inside
of the top, carefully following the
Bondex
®
instructions.
Snaps: Not all models have snaps. If
present, keep snaps cleaned and lubri-
cated with silicone to help prevent
snaps from sticking to the studs. If a
snap does become stuck to a stud, use a
screwdriver and GENTLY pry apart to
prevent permanent damage to the snap
or the top fabric.
