Arthur Fulmer Rag-tops

[radams@ArkansasUSA.com (RANDALL ADAMS)]

This may be a really stupid question because...after all, it is a british 
car...  However, how can you stop water from seeping in around the threads
in the rag-top?   When in a heavy rain last weekend (yes, i was out in it in
my tr3 and yes, there was a degree of dampness expected but..) i could watch
the water bead up inside the rear window and drip down to the carpet.  The
only place i had that problem was in around the back window...any hints?
can i wax the threads or put a sealer on the top?  This was an original 30
yr old top that had never been on the car before this summer...excelent
condition.
