Tutorials: Glass, convertible top & vinyl care

Glass cleaning with Crystal

Crystal is a ready-to-use glass cleaner that cleans in seconds and streak-free – without damaging tints or films.

Application

1. Spray Crystal evenly onto a Micro-Glass microfibre cloth or directly onto the glass surface and spread.

2. Wipe dry with a second clean Micro-Glass cloth.

Exterior plastic cleaning and care

First the deep cleaning, then the care: Plastic Wash for pore-deep cleanliness, then Protecton or Protecton Matt for the desired finish. Best results with the Schwammapplikator black. Treat hard-to-reach areas with the Detail Brush.

Using Plastic Wash

1. Wipe plastic or vinyl surfaces with a damp Micro-Wash cloth.

2. Spray Plastic Wash onto a Micro-Wash cloth or directly onto the surface and spread evenly.

3. Work in with medium pressure. On textured surfaces use the cleaning brush.

4. Wipe over with a slightly damp cloth.

Using Protecton (gloss)

1. Clean plastic with Plastic Wash.

2. Apply Protecton with the Schwammapplikator.

3. Let it act – the milky-white film turns into a deep-black finish.

Using Protecton Matt

1. Clean plastic and let it dry.

2. Shake the bottle well.

3. Apply Protecton Matt evenly with the Schwammapplikator and firm pressure.

4. After about 20 minutes the matte finish becomes visible.

Cleaning and impregnating fabric tops

Fabric Top Cleaner is ideal for fabric tops – it attacks neither the impregnation nor the rubber inserts.

Using Fabric Top Cleaner

1. Only use on a dry fabric top.

2. Spray on the Top Cleaner and let it act for up to 10 minutes.

3. Brush out with the Cleaning Brush in the direction of the fabric fibres.

4. Rinse with plenty of fresh water and let dry.

5. Then re-impregnate with Lotos Protectant.

Using Lotos Protectant on fabric tops

1. Cover the body and windows with plastic film.

2. Shake Lotos Protectant well and spray the fabric top crosswise from about 30 cm away. Spread over the entire surface with the enclosed foam block.

3. Let dry. 1–2 further applications increase the effect.

Caring for plastic tops

Vinyl tops stay supple and dirt-repellent with regular treatment using Plastic Wash and Protecton.

Application

1. Clean the top with Plastic Wash and the cleaning brush. Buff over with Micro-Wash.

2. Apply Protecton with the Schwammapplikator and firm pressure. Let it act for 20 minutes.

3. Buff off with a clean cloth and light pressure.

Cleaning vinyl windows with Vinyl Clean

Vinyl Clean prevents vinyl windows from clouding and keeps them flexible and transparent for years.

Application

1. Shake the bottle well.

2. Apply Vinyl Clean with the Schwammapplikator to interior and exterior surfaces.

3. Wipe dry with the Micro-Absorb pink.

4. Repeat if needed.
