I've always just taken a hose to it (to get off the gross stuff) and then soapy water with my wash mit. It seem to work for me.

As above.

NEVER use the Meguiars Extreme/Ultra heavy duty Vinyl cleaner on the roof (it's in a purple spray bottle). It will stain your roof worse than the bird crap did!!

I believe that Porsche makes a convertible roof cleaner kit but that may only be for fabric roofs. I believe we have vinyl. I'd just go the car wash solution and water route (*don;t rub/scrub too hard) and then use '303 Protectant' on the roof to keep it from fading.

You could also ask the dealer what they'd use.

Sorry I couldn't have been of more help.

Cheers,

Just use some saliva and some tissue. Mommas use it on their babies, why don't we use it on ours? hehe j/k...

its a vinyl top. just wash it with soap and clean off with towel as soon as possible so should not affect the coloration.
