Hey, does anyone know if you can buy Raggtop brand convertible protectant at a store like Pep Boys or Auto Zone? You can order it all day on the web but I'd prefer to just get it from a store if possible.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Never seen it in stores, shop around because the price
varies a lot online.

I saw one kit sitting on the shelf at the GM delership. Was very surprised.

Now patiently waiting for its arrival from JC Whitney.
Also ordered some chrome mudflaps and clip-on window fans
while I was at it...lol.

I'll give a report on Raggtop's effectiveness after I try it.

I got mine at a local upholstery shop wholesale supplier.

Got the Raggtop and applied it.

They recommend 3 coats, and it feels like there might be one or 1.5 coats left in the can after laying down 3. Of course, I might have been a little generous on each coat but wanted to cover effectively, letting each coat dry in between.

Went on easy, but it's best to wipe up overspray immediately as it's a little tacky and smears on glass like crazy.

Afterward, top looks a little nicer and more uniform in color. During a light rain it beads up nicely and appears to shed water more effectively.

Each of these observations might very well be my imagination, but for $19.95 I felt it a good gamble to possible slow the ravages of weather and time on my fabric top.
