Can any of you guys help me with what I should be doing to clean & protect the soft top of my 325 convertible? I have just spent a day on the paintwork so the car is looking good but I dont want the soft top bringing the look of the car down. Although its fine just now (I think it has been well looked after by the previous owner or not used allot.....the car has a hard top too!) some advice would be appreciated so I can protect and look after it properly. Here is a pic of the car on sat......
