Default HELP! So confussed...

So just got my 2000 Silverstone S2K about a week ago and I want to wash it. BUT..What do I use on the fabric top??? I have to be honest, I have never owned a convertible so I am totally new to how to take of it. I have all the other waxes, Mother's California Clay Bar, chrome cleaner and so on. The S2K is just a weekend driver so it is in the garage most of the week. Also, should I be using a special car wash for the car too? Right now I have California Gold car wash.

Thanks everyone for all the help for this newbie!

you need a horse hair brush (or something similar), raggtopp or 303 VINYL cleaner and protectant

as long as the top is just normally dirty (no stains and nothing stuck on it), you can just use your car shampoo and a good brush to clean it. after drying you then need a preservative/ conditioner like 303, vinylex or raggtopp (vinyl version). our tops are not fabric- they are vinyl. and any good quality shampoo will do for the top and car-
