My soft roof is in not good condition. Previous owner dirty it around window glue for glass. This is not possible for clean it.
Now I have idea for PlastiDip thin layer all soft roof for better looking.
What do you think about this?
Someone has already done the same?

 

I haven't seen it done, but if the fabric is properly cleaned-it may work.

Is the rear window still sealed?

Have you looked into replacing the top yourself? They cost ~ $1200 (plus shipping from the US), but the work is fairly easy...

 

BTW-I like your signature/quote.

I agree, but my wife will not.....

Aaahhhh-what does SHE know?

 

Roof and rear window not leaking but looking terrible. I make photo later.
I bought this car for about $6500 and I not want pay $1200 only for roof, this is too much for me.
In my country is only few Crossfires cabrio and I not have many solutions or informations about this car. I looking also to SLK forum.
I can buy used roof for about $750 but this is last solution.

Haha, womens not accept my signature but I'm lucky guy. My woman like cars and she sometimes help me in garage

 

Maybe you are right but I would be suspicious of two laminated materials acting against one another when folding. I suspect that they would separate and leave ridges where the Plstidip stretched and stayed stretched.

 

This is my perfect roof.
Any ideas?

 

On the outside you could try scraping off the excess sealant and redye the top black. The interior is another story.

 

I try scraping this glue but this is not possible
Do you have any ideas for make better in interior?
Do you have any photos from oryginal interior?

 

You could watch this video?

I watch this video but camera is too far from the window and I can't see everything.

 

Rust-Oleum Fabric and Vinyl - Walmart.com

Wow. That is the worst I've seen.

 

Maybe in next year I buy used roof in better condition but now I must do something for better looking.
When this glue: http://app-autolackierbedarf.de/file...uze/040531.jpg dirty cloth it's over.
I tried everything for clean it but always defeat.

 

I make test on other similar material and this is not good idea. Material + PlastiDip is rough.
Now I have question: where can I buy soft top for my car?

 

send an IM to maxcichon, he bought a third party one for around $1000 that has the rear window sewn in a pocket so it will never separate, plus I think he got a lifetime warranty.
