Vynal Top Cleaning

[Bates51]

I have a 31 Victoria that I would like to clean and protect the vynal top. Does anyone have any suggestions on methods or materials. I am a new owner and can always benefit from experience.

Last few years a lot of guys are using 303 products. Both the multi surface cleaner and follow up with 303 Aerospace Protectant. Seems like it does a good job but for me it's a PITA as it must be mechanically dried wiping down with a towel. It does not air dry.

Thanks for your info. The auto parts store has something called Mothers VLR. I think I will keep seeing what is available locally and keep an eye out for the 303 products etc. Again thanks for your response

This best product I ever used was made by Griot's Garage. It was a vinyl top restorer. Griot's flag ship store is 10 minutes from my house. I called them several years ago and asked why they discontinued and was told there was no demand for it. they said if enough people asked to bring it back they would honor that request. Damn I like that stuff. Good luck.

 

[P.S.]

Count me as a fan of the 303 products.

I would like to encourage you to join our Victoria Special Interest Group. The website is victoriaassociation.org.
Or please send me your Victoria's body number and engine number so that we can add it to our list of surviving Victorias. We have over 600 Victorias on our list.
Thanks

I found my 303 at a marina. It’s apparently very popular for boats.

303 is Also popular for RVs. Check your RV store as well.

I know 303 is popular but Project Farm did a test on various vinyl/plastic/rubber protectants and 303 didn't hold up well. Cerakote actually performed the best of the bunch. Though this test was focused on "trim restorers" you could use most of these products for vinyl: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AayYUKBfrtw
