Default Convertible Top cleaner

I'm new to owning a convertible and was wondering what the best cleaner is to use on the top. There are a couple of darker colored stains on it and I would like to try and get them off. Thanks

Hi Justin,
Is your top black, white or tan? Vinyl or cloth?

I'd like to know too, I've tried different cleaners and as much as they advertise, none of them worked...

If you have some serious stains on a white/tan top, you can try a product with bleach in it. I use Tilex Mildew on my vinyl camper awning and it works well. Also heard of using Clorox Cleanup.

For regular protectant and to enhance the black, I like Mothers Preserves Protectant.

Cool thanks I will give it a try. I just have 2 smaller stains that are an eye sore to me.

+1. RaggTopp works great ... not too hard to use either. You can't go wrong with it ... although I have a fabric top, not vinyl.
