i have washed it twice (in 3.5 years)-
(my top is almost always under the boot, so it never gets dirty)
first time with porsche top cleaner (waste, imo) and second time with the same shampoo that i used on the car.
more important is the sunscreen to protect it- either 303 protectant or vinylex...

I also wash my top with the same shampoo that I use on the car.

Another vote for 303 protectant as well.

Normal Car Wash Soap and a gentle scrub brush should be sufficient. I really like to use 303 vinyl top cleaner if and when I want to get it really clean and remove old protectant.

As far as protectants, 303 and Vinylex are good products (I've used them both) but I prefer Raggtop

Raggtop provides great protection and looks PLUS I don't end up with excess protectant on my windows and paint after a rain. This is what made me a feverent Raggtop supportor.
