Water Stains - Canvas Top

Dollar Bill

Well-known member
Was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and would like to hear your resolution. I've used the often recommended 303 top cleaner. When it finally dries, these stains remain.

Thank you for any help you may provide.

Go-Jo and a toothbrush work well on grease stains, but I'm not sure what would work best on water or rust stains.
 
There is a product called Ragtop Cleaner. I have used it with excellent results. I first purchased it from Macs but I recently saw it being sold at a major car shoe.

Griot's makes a good top fabric cleaner. It took some water stains out of my cabriolet top. I scrubbed it in with a toothbrush and it worked well. Of course your mileage may vary due to variations in cloth, dyes, and even the chemistry of what creates the stain. Worth a look. Just google Griot's Garage.
 
I had the same problem with a 31 Roadster I purchased. I contacted LeBaron Bonney and they had a product that worked well.

Good tip to ask advice from Lebaron Bonney. I just sent them an email with photos - Will let you know their response.

Google was my first research step and FB was next. I found plenty of info on getting out blood, ink, grease, bird droppings etc but no joy on water wicking stains.
