What is the best way to clean the top. I now prefer to wash my car myself, after the mess at the automatic one. What are tips for cleaning the top when you wash and dry it. Also does anyone do anything else to the top such as some kind of protectant? Does anyone have any tricks or favorite ways to wash the car?

 

there was a thread that had this on it. Everyone seemed to like it

But the best idea is to not scrub it too much and take the protectant off it.

 

I use a damp towel for the bird droppings and then blow the dust and dirt off with compressed air.

My car has not been wet since we got it last October. Living in Las Vegas and having an extra vehicle makes keeping the Crossfire clean very easy. We clean it with damp towel dry towel method and wax it every two-three weeks. Daily dusting with California duster between cleanings works great.
