hi all

i have a 96 swb suzuki vitara soft and i was wondering what kind of things i can do to extend the life of the soft top?

i know by keeping it out of full sun helps but i dont have anything to put in under, so i might buy a cover.

i have heard that by putting armor all on it to pretect's it. is this true?

any help will be great

I armor-all mine regularly and it looks almost as good as the day I got it.
Well the black part does anyway, the windows are a bit scratched from trees and stuff.

I tried several different types of treatment/conditioning on my old suzi. The best (and most expensive unfortunately) i found was Auto Glym plastic/vinyl/rubber treatment, i think thats what they called it anyway. It's in a white 300ml spray pack, can get at most auto shops. Cost $29 or $39 from memory. Cleaned it up really nice, gave it a nice shine, lasted half a dozen washes between treatments, and BEST of all, didn't leave any greasy slimy residue shit like all of the other products did.
