I do not know if it is still being made. No greasy feel!

Up till now I figured I would not offer up a opinion but since you mentioned it Sun of a Gun is all I have used forever. Grady uses it as well. It is still out there.


Thanks Mike JMO

Cleaning them and putting a shine on is one thing, I’ve never seen anything to bring back hard old vinyl. At least leather you can bring it back. Has anyone ever saved vinyl, making it soft again? For years Ive searched for nice t top bags, I gave up trying yo make the vinyl soft, I ended up finding a set that was in a closet since 1978. It was soft like new. No matter what I put on the old vinyl it never was “saved”.

Darrell, Thank you for the Oxyclean tip. My vinyl top looks exactly like the before pic you posted and I really want it to look like the after picture. I tried other products to get that deep dirt out, but nothing worked that well. How long did it take you to work that roof to get all that dirt out? A few hours? Appreciate your tips.

Several hours. Using a hard bristle plastic brush. Keep working on it and it’ll come clean.
