Iso Top Fitting Question

[RosscoPCole74]

I have an Iso Top arriving soon and believe you need to leave the velcro to cure/dry for 24 hours after you fit it before you attach the lining. I use my Cali as my daily driver, can I put the pop top down during this time?

Yes, When I fitted my Iso top, I put my roof down after applying the Velcro to cure/dry for 24 hours. I fitted the lining the next day and it’s great. Really happy with it.

Its worth getting one of these, helps get rid of air bubbles to ensure proper adhesion:

Pardon our interruption...

They also sell at Halfords / Amazon.

Depends on the type of isotop seemingly. I was looking at a type VI and the kits were something like £67 inc postage.

I bought mine second hand & it came with most of the fitting kit. I only needed a strip of 10mm 'loop side' for around the rim of the roof (I got 10m and had spare left over) and a couple of metres of 20mm wide 'loop' for the back.

You can also buy the cleaning and 'adhesion promoter' wipes for next to nothing via eBay.
