Default Convertible Top Conditioner?

Does anyone know if Porsches " Convertible Top Conditioner " is compatible with the S2000? It says to use it only on polyacrylic/polyester tops. I assume thats what ours is made of but does anyone know for sure? Any suggestions of a particular type of convertible top cleaner to use before conditioning? If anyone has done this before, I'd appreciate any suggestions as to the proceedure you would recommend.

303 makes cleaner and conditioner. That's what most people will recomend.

SK2 tops are vinyl BTW.

I bought my bottle of 303 @ Canadian Tire. Some people have bought it at marine supply shops as well. It ranges from $12-$20 a bottle depending on size.

On leather? Are you sure?

I know it works great on anything vinyl but I wouldn't trust it (or ever use it) on leather.

Much better to just use a good old leather conditoner.

I can't find a Separate Leather Cleaner / Conditioner in Crappy Tire/Wal-Mart

I'm using Meguiar's Leather Cleaner/Conditioner all in one.

According to the 303 bottle I have, it says it will work on Leather.

There is the covertible top cleaner and the regular cleaner. I don't think you want to use the convertible top cleaner for the leather. The other bottle says that you can use it for the leather, but I wouldn't recommend it.. Lexol is what I use btw for the leather.

Man I can't find that 303 conv top cleaner kit anywhere in the waterloo region (the cleaner & protector)....

Anyone know of a place that sells 303 (Crappy tire, apple auto glass, wal-mart, etc around me don't carry it.)

Just buy Meguiar's Vinyl cleaner at your local crappy tires. It works great for the top and last forever.It's about 17.00 a bottle.

BTW even after 7 car washes the top looks like new.
