At midday on a Friday an Autoglym Convertible Cleaning Kit is pretty much all I'd expect to find in a shop.

Otherwise have a look at 303 Aerospace, RaggTopp, and Renovo.

Could be worth trying the OPC as well, from what I gather their own cleaning products are from the top OEMs just with a Porsche badge on and aren't overly expensive.

Yep: Autoglym Convertible roof cleaning kit.

What I do is to spray on the detergent cleaner then pressure wash it off! Do this two or three times and it will be super-dooper clean. Then use the sealer to waterproof the fabric. Watch out for overspray you don't want it anywhere other than on the fabric.

If you have a plastic rear window you need Renovo plastic window polish. I use an electric car polisher and buff the inside and outside - grand fun.

Done right it looks like new after.

After seeing a Merc clk with it's roof going green this week I thought a well timed clean and re-proof was in order, I got an Autoglym kit today from Halfords with some leather seat treatment (buy 2 cleaning items and get 1 free so got glass cleaner as well) but as the roof was clean from this mornings power wash I just used the re-proofer. As Autoglym is a spray it's well worth taking the trouble to mask up windows with tape and newspaper (I found )anyway it turned out to be a nice even coat and bottle will do 1 more treatment, seats super slippy now too .
