Waterproofing Convertible Top

Is it recommended to treat the convertible top to a waterproofing, much like one would do with boots or is the top already been treated? If needed, what do you recommend?

I don't have any leaks and was wondering what I need to do to keep the top in good shape.

3M 303. You can find this in any Auto/Marine Store. They have a cleaner, protectant, and water proofer. It's expensive, but the stuff REALLY works. Bird droppings will not stain your top and wash right off.

...or if you can't find 303, Ragg Topp is another preferred product.
