Thanks for all the help guys... I found an interesting "coctail mix" of stuff that actually worked very well... The top was quite dirty.. I used Blue Coral heavy duty carpet and upholestry cleaner mixed with Scrubbing Bubbles bath cleaner. After spraying I let them sit for about 2-3 minutes (NOT IN THE SUN). I then scrubbed both of these in the top with a brush, then used a soaking wet sponge to wipe off the soap and dirt. Then I used the Magic Eraser industrial strength and wiped over the area that I scrubbed and it came out like brand new.. After everything was clean I soaked and wiped the top down with Vinylex. I also found that 3M makes a rubber and vinyl cleaner that I found at a West Marine Boating Store and is primarily used for boats that actually works well also in place of the Vinylex...

I have to say though, the Magic Eraser was the ticket but it did not work that well until after I scrubbed the top first with the Blue Coral and Scrubbing Bubbles.... I think the top was just that dirty..

Thanks again........Rich

You must have been using the Magic Eraser with your right hand. They are for left hand use only...

Magic Eraser is a left wing product?

You guys crack me up. Rich is the king of clean. He made that decades old top look like new. We should have had a permit for all the chemicals used.
