Hi,
Starting to see a bit of dust and dirt in the convertible mechanism itself. I don't tend to use the tonneau caps because of the rubbing issue on the top. What's the best way to clean the parts? I'm thinking compressed air and then 3 in 1 oil on the joints?

I would use silicon spray. 3 in 1 oil will collect dirt. Be careful with where you aim the compressed air. It can mess up electrical components and connections. Ask me how I know. :curse:

I wasn't thinking of using powerful compressed air, just one of those cans for cleaning keyboards.
