Hi, just wondering what would be the best thing to use to remove roof protector treatment from the soft top?

I have some green/white dirty marks/patches on my roof which I can't seem to clean off, but the water does bead on it which seems like treatment has been applied and 'protecting' the dirt on it too!

Many thanks :)
 
Hi, have you tried milton sterilising tablets? A few people on here have had good results using them including me.
They’re cheap as chips as well :P

Thanks for the responses. I could get hold of some Milton sterilising fluid, so I'll give that a try (probably make up some in a trigger bottle for easy application).

Not sure about fluid, I’ve only used the tablets which you drop in water.

To get a waterproof layer off you need a solvent.

I'd agree with that but just have to be a bit careful with solvents dripping all over the paint work etc. I'd suggest Bilt Hamber Surfex HD diluted about 5% with water. https://www.bilthamber.com/surfex-hd

Renovo also do a soft topcleaner as do Autoglym but I have a feeling they won't be powerful enough if the roof has been proofed on top of the mildew.
 
I used Renovo Soft top cleaner this time last year and it worked a treat. My soft top didn’t look too bad but it was like pond water coming off when I rinsed the cleaner off after allowing it to get to work. It cleaned it up brilliantly.
Then I used Renovo ultra proofer afterwards - just paint it on with a brush. Gave me fantastic results that have lasted
