Ok so I know I'm a traitor having moved to an Audi S4 cabriolet but if you have a soft top that needs a little TLC I have no hesitation in recommending the product below. The cabrio I bought had lived outside for 7 years and it clearly showed with the green algae/mould on the roof.
I'd tried cleaning it twice with Autoglym soft top cleaner with a modest but not acceptable result so looking for something that would get my roof how I wanted it I found this on Amazon. As it said in the reviews if you want the instructions you need to get them off their website as the bottle is all in German. That said it's no different to most of the others, give your roof a hoover and brush to remove any debris, wet it with a garden hose before spraying this on. I then gently agitated it with a Vilkan convertible roof brush which I also purchased through the aforementioned site. I then rinsed it thoroughly until no more product was showing in the water as it came off. Once dry I've then treated the roof with Fabsil to keep as much moisture out of the roof in future even though I keep my car in a garage.
If you've read this far sorry there are no before and after photos I just never thought to take any before ones and without them an after one is pointless. All I can say is I lik to think I'm fairly picky so I wouldn't recommend it if I wasn't happy with the results.
