Being unable to drive it, my 2000 convertable sat covered in the driveway for about five weeks.After several record rain falls I removed the cover to find mildew spots on the top.After trying regular car wash and one cleaner just for convertable tops they are still there.Can anyone help???????

I had some stains on my tan top . Tried alot of stuff. The one I found to work the best was SHOUT. The stuff my wife uses on clothes. Wet the top down good than use the little brush on top of the bottle to loosen the stain. Then rinse top.

Hope it works for ya.

The folks over in the Car Care Discussion section of the Forum may be of more help to you on this. Several knowledgeable people and a few professional detailers hang out in that section and some of them should be able to offer you some suggestions. Good luck.
