    Hello Paulie, I would like to thank you for your videos about the Fiat Barchetta. I recently bought my first Barchetta, and it's an amazing vehicle that I have been dreaming about for a few years. There is still a lot of work to be done on it, but your videos inspire me when it comes to repairs. I hope you will continue to create more interesting content or guides about the Barchetta. Thank you for your work, and keep it up. Best regards, Tomáš from the Czech Republic.

    Thanks excellent clean up .. and repair. Top cover also gets a bit stiff with age and edgy to roll back and forth - I've got a good polisher for back window but suppose it's a tricky job

      Yes, makes such a difference to the whole car when the colour is restored

    Hi Paulie, thanks for yet again a very useful video. I´m about to order the window repair kit but I was wondering if, when folding the roof this material is flexible enough to not rip the little slits open again. Thank you

    • @pauliecabs
      @pauliecabs  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Do you mean the window or the black vinyl repair?

    • @chachohernandez5497
      @chachohernandez5497 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The window, I have a few small cuts on both sides, exactly where the window folds when you lower the roof.

      Seems to be ok. Look up cabriodoc on TH-cam. The video is about 7 years old

      Great! Where did you get it? Other people might be interested in replacing instead of repairing.

      It's filler which is part of a leather repair kit which also works in vinyl. There's a link in the description
