    I use this, but I would definitely invest in the ragg top cleaner/conditioner.

    Wow the second one is 40 bucks? Compared to 9.99 posted by David..



    What is so special about that one?



    And both these brushes can be used to wash the top wish (soap) or is it kinda just to get the lint/other foreign junk off?

    There is nothing special about it, it`s just an old one that I had laying around. I bought a new wheel brush and had this one in supply, so when I bought my convertible, I figured I could put it back to good use. In a nutshell, as long as it is a very soft bristle brush where it won`t grab into the ragg top and beging to ruin it, you should be fine. Yes, both can be used to wash the top. Again, though, I don`t use regular soap on mine. I use Ragg top cleaner and a bucket of water and then hose with a regular garden hose (I never use a pressure washer on my convertifble). Then twice a year, I will protect it with Ragg topp protectant.

    Cool, so that one is a cleaner. Okk so I would just basically spray that on, and then agitate it a bit, then hose off? And i`m done?



    Could I use the brush David recommended me to agitate it?

    Sure can. I used it (along with Ragg Top products) on a $600K Rolls Royce Drophead Coupe:

    You certainly could use David`s brush. Any soft bristle brush that won`t grab the fabric.
