How do I properly maintain the soft top of my BMW Z4?

I recently got a BMW Z4 with a soft top and I want to make sure I am properly maintaining it to ensure its longevity. What are the steps I should follow to clean and protect my soft top? What products should I use and how often should I do it?

Hi Samantha, maintaining your BMW Z4's soft top is important for its durability. First, always make sure to use products specifically designed for soft top maintenance. It's recommended to clean your soft top once every 3 months to 6 months, depending on how often you use your car. Start by vacuuming any loose debris and then use a mild soap and warm water to gently clean the top. Use a soft bristled brush to avoid damaging the material. Once clean, let it air dry or use a microfiber cloth. After the top is dry, apply a soft top protectant to help keep it looking new and protect it from UV rays.
