    Yeah so i've heard, Im just not sure which one to purchase, they make a few different types of sprays. Thinking i'll get the fabric one instead of aerospace version (doesn't say it covers canvas)

    Werd. I have no topper so I wouldn't know which is best for that. I hit my dash and other plastiques with it. Phenomenal stuff. And no shiny, greasy nonsense. Just a good clean, matte look with excellent protection properties.

    I have the protectant. Works awesome as Greg mentioned on pretty much everything. Restores all your plastics and canvas without leaving a shiny oily residue. Honestly I think the fabric and the protectant one's are the same formula from what I have heard. The fabric one might just offer more water beading in the canvas? This stuff came around from guys using it on there boat canopies so it all works great for our toppers as well.

    'Bestop' also sells topper cleaner and protectant that is legit and works awesome as well from comparison's I have seen. So that's another good option for ya.

    Dude. You better find a massive spot then if you're going to turn that into a t4r and TW meet. You're talking a massive group. You may need to take this to Johnson Valley.

    I have read that too when I was doing research on what to get. All the softopper guys recommended the protectant because of great results and it more versatile. I love it and have had no issues with it on mine. I have also read somewhere on 303's site that the protectant is "safe for canvas" so it's a little misleading. Not really sure what the difference is tbh.

    That's gonna collapse toabout 20 rigs. I always count on about a 30% dropout on these. My Utah trip is booked at 12 but I expect 9 will actually roll.

    Not sure if I want to get that 303 or get the official Bestop cleaner/protector for my new top... definitely want to keep that thing in prime condition from day 1.

    Sounds like the Pismo trip this year. I coulda sworn there was at least 20+ rigs signed up and only about 10 of them showed up.

    I can still take care of it by putting that stuff on there. No buffer yet, possibly getting one for christmas, if not I'll probably drop the money and scoop one up.

    There's huge cancellations with meets. "I forgot I have a test..." "I forgot its my wife's bday...." "I forgot that's a Saturday and I work Saturdays...." Its normal. I've taken an average and its usually a 30% cancellation factor

    I'm inherently 3.14 % accurate, 75% correct, and 100% too generous. This 33% true.
