Default Green/Algae present on the roof?

Guys,

There is green (i think algae or something) present on my roof, most noticeably around the sections that curves around the windows, its actually in the stitching.

Anyone else had this problem and what can you kill it with dettol or something?


Cheers

I used some cleaner I use on my boat cover, worked a treat. Can't remember what it is called now but yeh, spray it on and scrub and it all came out.

Common many cars, warm soapy water and a soft bristle brush, or for the tougher stuff, some Meguiars Cabriolet roof cleaner.
