Post by JustinRoy »

Hello all

What is the best way to clean the original canvas top+clear windows on a 1973 712m?

Thanks

Hi,

you can clean it using a normal car shampoo and a mild brush, this works quite good.
After rinsing you can use for example 303 Aerospace protectant for protection

To get the windows clear again, I used to polish them, for example with the mild Meguiars polish. Using a exzenter machine (not a rotary), low speed and not too much pressure.
It helps if someone holds a panel against the window from the inside so it can't bend through.
Be carefull and take your time so the windows don't overheat, this damages the plastic irreversible.

Best regards from Munich
