Default What to use when cleaning a convertible top

I have a 68 with a black convertible top. Got the car two months ago. Top looks great now but what can I clean it with? 303 Protectant is what I use on interior vinyl. Good for a convertible top?

I would not use any of those protectors, such as 303, armor all, etc on a ragtop. I only use a foam spray window cleaner and wipe it down. Keeps it clean and looks good and leaves no residue or damage to the top.

303 protectant is recommended by all the major top manufacturers. I have used it for over 5 years without any issues.

303 protectant isn't a cleaner, but will be fine to treat it after cleaning.

303 makes top cleaner as well as protectant.

Default cleaning convertible top

I use Murphy's oil soap in warm water. Recommended by a guy that put's tops on for 30 years. Works for me.
