Convertible-roof care
The roof deserves material-specific care.
Convertible-roof cleaning and care at AVP Autopflege near Zurich for fabric hoods, hardtops, rear windows and weather seals.
Convertible-roof care
Read the roof material before caring for it.
Fabric hoods, vinyl roofs and hardtops weather in different ways. Dirt, algae, ultraviolet exposure and ageing seals each need their own treatment.
We inspect fabric, seams, rear window and seals before cleaning, refreshing and protecting the roof with products suited to its construction.
When it fits
When the roof has lost colour, water behaviour or clarity.
Convertible-roof care supports appearance and maintenance when the material remains structurally sound.
Restore a cleaner, more even appearance.
Embedded dirt is removed carefully before compatible impregnation is considered.
Improve clarity where the material allows.
Flexible rear windows are assessed for surface haze, scratching and age-related limits.
Keep rubber clean and supple.
Weather seals receive suitable care to reduce drying and sticking.
Process
Clean, refresh and protect the roof.
Material and condition are established first, followed by careful cleaning, treatment and final control.
Inspect
We check the roof material, seams, windows, seals and visible wear.
Clean
Contamination is released without flooding sensitive seams or attacking the material.
Refresh and protect
Compatible products restore appearance and water behaviour where appropriate.
Review
The roof is checked and practical maintenance advice is given at handover.
Honest assessment
Care cannot repair a damaged roof structure.
Torn fabric, failed seams, brittle windows and leaking mechanisms need repair or replacement. Cleaning and impregnation should not be used to conceal those faults.
We separate maintainable weathering from structural damage before any treatment begins.
