Clean Interior but what about the ragtop?
Well I cleaned my interior today and I have to share my success!
I have always wiped down everything and then used armor all but it always had a slightly dirty and greasy look/feel. From reading the boards here, I started with simple green (no armorall) and finished the seats with a leather conditioner. WOW did that make a difference! Now the inside of my '04 feels like it is still in the showroom. (Pics below)
Here is a question... On the parchment ragtop there are small black spots/areas that are forming (maybe mold/mildew from the humid Florida weather?) Has anyone found an effective way to rid of them without harming the top? I have tried a few things to no avail. It is not noticeable from a distance but it certainly bothers me. Any pointers would be appreciated.

I used F21 or something protectant, it's by Turtle wax I believe, keeps the top VERY conditioned. Unlike these guys, I don't have a garage, but my car looks like I do garage it, and it's a 2000 with the original top

Wish my interior looked that good, mine isn't bad, its just black and I use armorall but I want something that puts more of a shine. What kind of leather conditioner did you use?
****, I just noticed your name, dude I'm a TKE!

Great to see another TKE here, I came through AZ State University in '01. I saw that you are in the Tampa area, I am just a couple hours south of you in Fort Myers. If you ever hear of a SW Florida event let me know!
