Whatever your top vinyl or mohair, if it's got green on it start with Milton the stuff you clean babies bottles with, then the cleaner and protector of your choice. you have to get it back to a sterile state.

Cheers Rich
I'm a bit nervous about using Milton. I've seen what is does when it gets in contact with clothes and can easily bleach it.
I've used a spray mould and mildew remover before but the McGuire's cleaner has a built in mould ingredient which seems to work ok

I'm going to try a couple of the recommended products (thanks all) and see what results come back. My roof is 9 years on the car and it's been outside all that time so needs a bit of tlc to get it back to black.

Good thread, just ordered the 303 aerospace protector after reading a lot of good things about it.
Anyone using this on parts other than the soft top (tonneau cover, seats, dash...)?

I had a new hood fitted at Car hood warehouse In Chessington and when green mould appeared on leading edge of roof, spoke to them and they said use soft nailbrush and soap (used dilute fairy liquid) and it cleaned up nicely
