convertible top cleaning

hi, i have a fox vert with a black top. Its an original top thats in great condition, but needs a cleaning. Dont want to use something that leaves a shiny look, just something that cleans with no dressing.

I use aerospace 303 protectant in my plastic and rubber and it doesn't leave a shine. Check out thier website, I know they make a few products for different things. The Areospace 303 protectant is good stuff.

I've heard great things about the Raggtopp products, but I have not ordered any yet.

I LOVE Raggtop products!!! I also use 303 Aerospace protectant on all vinyl trim, but I dont think you can use it with a cloth top.

I ordered from here:

++ on the "303" products. They have a vinyl top cleaner and a vinyl protector (seems kinda like armorall without the greasiness). So far I really like the product. I checked around and some places carry it, but only had the small bottles, so I ordered it on-line.

Well.... I said ++ on the 303. The crease marks on the vert top are now highlighted as white streaks after using the 303. Did not use too much. After the top has been up overnight, the crease marks are gone, but the white marks are still there (from the 303, I guess). If I put more 303 on, they go away. Any suggestions?

The crease marks appear to be just from the folding of the top. No big deal, my have always gone away, usually overnight. My question was with the "white marks" where the creases ad been. The only thing that was different than before with my top is that I put the "303" on the top. If I re-apply the "303" the white marks will dissapear.
