Convertible top cleaning and protecting

[ATLDiver]

I recently bought a used convertible with a top in excellent, like new shape but there are a couple of water type stains on it. Never having a convertible before I've been reading up on my options, Raggtop seems to be the only player out there but it's pricey and I've read mixed reviews; are there other options?

 

Does Adams have anything that would work better?

303, but I've seen that raggtop is more popular.

 

If you have a vinyl top Super VRT has been used. You do need to ensure it is not cloth though.

 

I personally find for my top that mixing up a small batch of soap and water then using a (thoroughly cleaned) lug nut brush gently in opposing directions gets my top clean. If it's already clean I treat it like paint just ensuring to use no pressure. The Adams wash mitts are spectacular are removing any loose dust with no effort.

Yeah, I did see the video where using a soap mixture in brush works. Looks like both 303 and Raggtopp are online only, I was mind of hoping to do this tomorrow but I may just have to settle for giving a good cleaning for now.

I just use my Adam's Car Shampoo on it and wash the top at the same time I do the whole car.  Works great.
