Just got a 1999 Celica GT Conv.
Looking for best way to clean the black canvas convert top. Also, looking for a good product to waterproof the canvas, as I understand it, the canvas is only water resistant unless treated with proofing. The autoparts stores out here stink, all I could find was "Blue Magic" Convertible cleaner and protectant. Judging by the looks of the bottle, this is not the product I was looking for for waterproofing. Any suggestions? |

It's a two part product, with a cleaner and then treatment. It's recommended by the fabric top supplier for our cars. You can order it through online retailers. |

Is it from the threads around the rear window, or possibly the rear trim piece has a rain channel blocked? |
