Unfortunately, it's too late when it starts fading. Keeping it clean is really the best treatment there is. Use either Simple Green diluted, or bleach diluted in water. You can also pay for "Raggtop" cleaner. Use a soft brush to scrub.

I use Armor All on my 02 GT's top. It makes a huge diff in appearance. I don't know if the material on mine is the same as yours, though.

Check this product. Works great.

Just make sure you use the right one for the material of your top.

I use "Raggtop" cleaner and "Raggtop" conditioner. I have a cloth convertible top. I am not sure what to use on a vinyl top.

The same company makes one for vinyl top. They look identical. The difference in only on the label where it indicates for which type of material it is.
