Beading
Weatherproof coatings for soft top roofs are hydrophobic and repel water, causing water droplets to bead up and roll off the roof. However, this only happens for a short while after the roof is re-proofed as dust soon collects on the roof which breaks the surface tension of the droplets. Water will then sheet and soak through the hood.
