Soft top cleaner.

I haven't, but I am sure someone has recently on here - I remember because they definitely used the Megs proofer and I decided I will try it when my AG stuff is finished. Tbh, I find Megs products very good - I have a few of their polishes of various types, and use their wheel cleaner, tyre shine and quick detailer every wash. So I reckon you'll be ok - be interested in what you think when you've used it.
I'll see if I get a chance before I go back to work. I tried the AG kit which was good but I used all the cleaner and still have half a bottle of proofer left so got the Megs cleaner rather than buy the full kit from AG. Megs products seem to be a popular choice on here so should be ok.
I just used Fabsil water proofer on Saturday and gave the roof a quick clean with a power wash then used the fabsil which you put on with a paint brush, very easy to apply and when it dried the roof is so black again with no visible marks from the roof frame so I would say fabsil does revive the roof as mine now looks MINT and the water beads off it for fun, £13 for 1 litre from Halfords I will always use this from now on.

I've used it and it's perfect.
however, you will also need this: http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_804693_langId_-1_categoryId_255237
And you'll only get one use out of the cleaner :/
For that reason, I stopped using it and went to Autoglym's kit.

My roof was really clean so my friend who is brilliant at valeting cars just gave the roof a quick blast with his power washer and the next day I applied the fabsil which is used to waterproof tents and job done the roof looks like a brand new one it is a superb product, I also did my wife's Smart for two convertible as well and still had around a quarter of the tin left.

I picked up 5 litres of Fabsil for £30 delivered,online last year.Do a Google search or Ebay. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CARAVAN-AWNING-TENT-FABSIL-REPROOFER-UV-PROTECTOR-5-LITRE-/200804685954?pt=UK_Campervan_Caravan_Accessories&hash=item2ec0e45882
Have a read of this thread on how to prepare the soft top before doing the Fabsil. http://www.ttforum.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=115683
Just some input, fabsil is a water proofer, the top layer on our roofs are designed to let the water through to the next layer, so not sure if it's a good or bad thing to use??!!
For the record I used renovos 3 stage kit other week and looks good, though you can still see the fold lines a bit despite using the coloured reviver!

Everyone has different opinions regarding soft top care.Mine was looking a bit green on the top and the milton tablets killed the spores and a few days later I did the stuff from the TT forum thread and i'm pleased with the results.I have a couple of fold lines in mine at the front.I haven't used any coloured reviver.
I think that if the roof is designed to let water through,all the crap collects in the material and can look like moss.

my friend valets a lot of cars and knows what he is doing he doesn't go full blast directly at the soft top it is just a quick angled blast and there are no lines or marks whatsoever.
