303 or Raggtop for Vinyl. Many prefer Raggtop because it beads water.

I get my 303 at the local auto parts store. Raggtop is a bit harder to find, but you can check their website and they show you locations they sell it. You can also order from our site sponsor detailersdomain.

303 is usually available at Marine Stores, boat dealers, etc. Any good vinyl cleaner will work, and 303 Aerospace Protectant to protect/preserve the vinyl top.

I used Autoglym Bumper Care and I warn anyone not to use it. It is extremly hard to spread evenly and now I have patches where it hasn't spread properly.

I ordered the 303 cleaner and protectant. Does anyone know if the 303 cleaner will remove the excess bumper care blotches? I have tried soap and warm water and it has gotten most of it off but still can see it somewhat.

You can try the 303 cleaner and lightly scrub it with a soft brush. If you scrub too hard it will tear the vinyl!
