Keep a clean MF rag or two handy for the inevitable drips. You DO NOT want this stuff drying on the paint or glass or anything. It's like clear coat. But you want it soaked into the fabric, not sprayed all over the place, so...

1. Unscrew and remove the spray nozzle, throw it in the trash and never touch it again.
2. Pour 1/4 of the bottle 303 into the paint roller pan.
3. Use the roller like you are painting. If you've ever painted with a roller, you know. If you haven't, watch a video Slow and steady with light pressure. You want it to wet the fabric enough to soak in (and it will) but not drip.
4. Do half the top (I did driver side first).
5. Pour another 1/4 of the bottle in the tray.
6. Do the other side while it dries.
7. 3rd quarter of the bottle for coat #2 on the first side. It'll still be very slightly tacky, and that's OK.
8. Remaining 25% for second coat on the second side.

One full bottle did two complete coats.

Great info above…I’d just add wear a decent vapor respirator. The fumes can’t be good for your health. I did mine outside and ended up stopping midway to mask up.

soap & water doesn't take that sticky residue off. I haven't found anything that does. Are you saying applying the raggtopp will remove the sticky residue?

I find a plastic tarp from the dollar store works great for prep. Also make sure you use a foam roller so there is no lint left behind.

HB,

*Excellent* idea tucking in that light plastic sheet underneath the top.
