===Directions=== Mix about an egg cup full of soap flakes with about four pints or warm water, I used a saucepan for this. Lay the soft top on a flat surface (e.g. a garden table) and scrub it hard. If you have a moss/green slime problem then you will see this coming off. Hang up the soft top up (on a washing line) and spray it with a garden hose, keep spraying until the water is all coming off clean. leave the soft top hanging for a few hours, ideally in the sun, until its dry. pour some Fabsil into a cereal bowl and paint it onto the outside of the soft top, make sure all the folds and pleats are throughly soaked. hang up the soft top again to dry. You must let the hood dry completely, the tin says fabsil can take 6 hours to dry, however on a winters day in some sunshine it only took about 2 hours for mine to dry. refit to the car - the hood will have shrunk a bit but it will stretch back to how it was with a few uses.
