Sarge Green with Tan Soft Top and Tan Leather

[JimmyZ]

Does anyone have the above setup? Is the tan premium top more difficult to keep clean than the black top? If you have any photos to share it would be greatly appreciated. I am trying to finalize my color and I keep leaning back to this set up but have not seen one except via the Jeep builder. Thanks in advance!!!

I don’t have one but I’ve seen one in person and it looked great. No comment on keeping the top clean though

I think that combo would be sweet. I was considering the tan to for my white next year. I think if u are garage kept and u keep on top of the cleaning of it no issues. I think tan leather vs black for interior is way more forgiving so that’s why I think the tan top would be easy.

That's my next favorite color combination.

Great choice!

Other than mud, which is a pain to clean regardless, I would think tan would be as easy to clean as the black? Sometimes I have to brush clean the top (Sunrider black twill), but it's not generally stained. Microfiber cloth and clean water work great.

@Krondor knowing what you know now about the twill premium top would you still order it compared to the vinyl? It looks much nicer in my opinion, however, it appears it would be slightly more difficult to maintain. After you microfiber, do you vacuum the top to eliminate any fibers straggling?

I am in the process of repossessing my garage from the other half. I should have won the war by then .

Thanks for all the replies. If anyone has any pictures I'm still definitely interested in seeing them. Thanks!

Highly recommend this combo for fabric top cleaning and protection. My 18 year old convertible's top looks brand new.

Go for it! Sounds like a winning combination.

Absolutely wouldn't go any other way than the Twill. Honestly, I just spray it clean through the car wash with the rest of the Jeep. The only time I get after it with a wet microfiber and brush (horse hair works great), is when I've been through mud or a bird was a shit. I don't let either stay if I can help it.

Fairly easy to clean to be honest and after two years, looks near new except for being dusty on the inside surface.

PS: I've never had to vacuum the exterior for loose fibers. I have tried to vacuum the dusty interior but found compressed air to be a lot better... if done outside.

I have the premium tan and it's 19 months old. Still looks like new though mine is kept in a garage.

Check this thread for a Sarge green Willys 2-door with a tan top. I'm not going to lie, it looks fantastic (although the owner said the tan is tough to keep clean).
