Video tutorial

In this informative video, a YouTuber describes how to keep one of the most beautiful yet problematic accessories of a car, the sunroof, clean and functioning. This is a skyDome model fitted on a Fiat Punto Evo, but the tips are applicable to any type of sunroof on any vehicle.

Clean the tracks thoroughly with a piece of cloth, both on the upper and lower sides, then use a slightly diesel-soaked brush to clean the tracks. Next, mix a bit of oil and grease and apply it to the tracks for lubrication.

It should be a thin layer; otherwise, dust will stick. Do this on both sides.

Open and close the roof a couple of times, and the job is done.
