Every Spring I give all the soft top joints a drop or two of Tri-Flow oil and it's always worked great.

Hi, never heard of Tri-Flow oil where can it be purchased? I cleaned and protect with 303 a week ago and when i first lowered top it got stuck but reversed it and it went down.

Hi, You can get Tri-Flow at a good bicycle shop or gun store. The 2 oz. is about $6.00 but lasts a long time as not much is needed for most things. Good Luck with your top.

Thanks, I used Fluid film by Eureka chemical company it's called Rust & corrosion preventive solvent free/lanolin based. The top works like normal. These convertable tops are well made in many ways and for esthetics on interior love the headliner! shows no assembly on brackets. Thanks again
