lcwizard, that is truly outstanding, but comes as little surprise...having dealt with you in the past. Your quality and insight have helped me through a number of issues.
Just to be clear, in no way did I mean to infer that the 4Plus was, in any way, the reason for this problem. More to the...
It is just better than anything I have ever had. Hard to explain...never been too loose at all. It fits perfect and still hangs like it did when I got it almost 3 years ago. No shrink, no stretch and still no fade. I spray 303 on it every year and keep it out of the sun when not in use, but...

There is dispersed information spread all over the place, but one of the most informative threads has been deleted, or at least I cannot find it.
Looking for a list of the best spray-on canvas / Sonnendeck UV and water protectants for our soft tops.
When I first got my top, I bought some...
Here is mine...

Side note, we had to modify the bracket slightly to fit with my oversized alternator...
Yea, I noticed it was different...it looked much beefier than stock. just could not make heads nor tails of what they made it out of.
No biggy, looks good to me.
