I have re proofed my soft top using the autoglym kit, when it rains it beads for a while then just soaks in. Is this natural ??

Welcome along - the soft tops are designed to allow water to permeate the outer layer, there is an inner water proof layer that prevents water entering the cabin

There is a guy not far from you but his reputation is not the best.

Many people go to a guy in Durham called Dave. There's a thread about his services somewhere on this forum.

It's either that, or take your chances with the guy in Warrington - but read all of this thread before you decide!
