I thought 303 Aerospace Protectant was supposed to protect from WATER? (and sun of course) What is the point of applying if it will streak when H2O gets on the top??

The Protectant is not a waterproofer. It's to protect from sun, ozone, bird dookey, etc.

2 comments on this....

1) West Marine carries 303, and they have a lot of stores nationwide.

2) If you really want to take good care of the top, you need to do something to prevent the "wear holes" issue first. Otherwise, your top will have holes in it long before the sun or bird poopies do any noticable damage. If you're not familiar with the wear holes issue, do a search for "convertible top wear holes". I'm getting my top replaced because of the wear holes, and will try to come up with some preventative fix so that it doesn't happen again.

exactly - 303 makes a cleaner/ protectant - and the "waterproofer" which isnt so much a waterproofer and a product to stregnthen the existing materials ability to repel water -

i have the kit with 16 oz bottle - its a two in one kit . . .for vinyl tops . . .
