i know this is a 3 year old topic but i wanted to revive it and see what people are using to clean their tops. When my car was broken into and the top was sliced i used tape the first night to seal it up...but now there is tape residue left. I've washed the car about 5 or 6 times since then and it hasn't even really faded. Any tips on a harsh cleaner that won't mess up my top?

Option B is to talk to the guys at your local auto upholstery shop. They have almost certainly dealt with this at some time.

goo gone is the shizittt, don't know about converitlbe tops though. I bought this $15.00 bottle of maguires vinyl cleaner, and a bottle of their restoer. I first cleaned my top with it, then use the other bottle to condition it, made it alot shiner for about a 1month. Don't know if it'll get your tape goo of though..

Use any of the orange acid based cleaners, they generally don't harm any surfaces. Removes glue from paint quicker better than wd-40. They longer you leave it on the better it breaks up the glue, turns it into mush.
As always test a small spot first.
