Default How to clean convertible top?

This being my frst convertible, i dont know what to use? I washed the car for
the first time yesterday and just rinsed the top a little and wiped it with a rag. The
top was not dirty so I did not do much to it. Need your help, people? What products to use for cleaning/conditioning top (inside and out)? Please provide some links/info on where to buy these items from too. Thanks!

Use 303 on the outside and wipe the inside with a damp rag.

Is there a separate 303 cleaner and conditioner? Or is it an "all in one"?

you can buy a kit.. it has 2 bottles of
- 303 Top Cleaner
- 303 High Tech Fabric Guard


ppl say they are the best product..

Anyway.. anyone knows what to use on rubber near window? would they dry off if I don't do anything?
Do I need to put some oil on moving parts of top?

You can get 303 Vinyl Protectant and Cleaner from West Marine or most boating/marine stores if you don't feel like ordering it and paying S&H.

I'm confused.
Do we have a vinyl top or fabric top? I thought we have fabric...

They have 2 kinds.. one for fabric and for vinyl. ..
