Soap and water. Black top almost 5 years old, stays outside 24/7 and in perfect condition. I did have a water repellent applied once.

This is what most of us use, RaggTopp, cleaner and protectant. You may not need it, depends on how dirty it is. But there is good info to read anyway. One caveat, make sure the top is completely dry before lowering it and leaving it down for any time. It can take a top 2-4 days to dry completely/thoroughly.
