Two cleaning questions:
1. How do you clean the black convertable top?
2. How do you clean the black brake dust from your Mag Rims?

Thank You

The soft top you can clean with soap and water, same with the rims. You could also buy some rim/wheel cleaner. I think it's just a spray on, wash off type of thing. Or just do what I do, take a soft soapy cloth and wash them.

Convertable top cleaner is buyable at any auto shop like upholstry cleaner.
Mag wheels, wash, clean with a wheel cleaner, If they are alloys you can polish them, if chrome you can protect them with a wheel wax. Wheel wax will work on any wheels although it is a little expensive but a quality wheel wax in negatively charged the same as brake dust which helps to repel it, also switch to ceramic brakes, less dust and it isn't black.
