Default convertible top cone.

i have a 95 camaro z28 convertible and while im driving the top looks like it has an air bubble in it and sticks like a cone. i checked for holes where air could be coming through but i didnt see any. it looks real bad and was wondering is there any way to repair that without purchasing a new top.

You have to have the top tightened up. If it is in good enough shape.

Exactly^^^
If the top is in good shape you can just take a few screws off of the front of the headliner trim, pull up the fabric to the top that is glued in place and just pull it a little tighter and reglue.
Very easy to do.
This will give you an idea of what all is involved with our tops: http://www.camaroz28.com/forums/appe...o-pics-638740/

Any 3M upholstery product will be fine. I have not used the spray can version but I used the product in a tube... cant remember the exact kind but it worked perfect.
