The paint is fully cured when you take delivery. It is baked at the factory which is good enough, however, there is at least 1 month from when it leaves the factory to the US, so the paint is cured. |

The stuff gets everywhere, all over the car, even in my closed garage. So basically, don't use it in the wind lol. It's got a slightly greasy feel but wipes off the paint and windows easily enough. I would use it and let it dry before you wash your car, otherwise you'll ruin your shiny finish. Also, I applied it in cold temperatures and it didn't appear to dry for quite a while. Yesterday was the first day I could put the car out into the sun and it felt dry after, not the greasy feel anymore. I will apply it in the garage on a hot day and then pull the car out to "bake" in the sun next time I apply it.

Did you use the Raggtopp cleaner before the protectant - or just the protectant? Was your top completely dry before applying? I'm planning to do mine next weekend.
Thanks-

The top was completely dry, and I didn't use the cleaner. I didn't see any need since the top is brand new.
