Unhappy Convertible Top Mildew Stains

I left my 350Z Roadster parked outside, covered, for 10 weeks, and came home to find the convertible top covered in red spots. Must be mildew. Have scrubbed with soap and water but no results. Can anyone help me resolve this? Thanks

Removing Convertible Top Stains

Sooner or later, your top will be inflicted with a stain that will not come out with regular shampoo. Common stains include bird droppings, tree sap and grease. For these occasions, you will need to use a stronger cleaner that can penetrate and release the foreign matter.

Your first inclination will be to scrub the stain with the regular shampoo. DON'T! All scrubbing will do is spread it around. To remove stains from your canvas or vinyl top, use Wolfstein's RaggTopp Cleaner in full concentration. Spray it liberally on the stain before washing the whole top. Let it soak in, but don't let it dry. After it has soaked for 3 to 5 minutes, rinse your top and wash as usual. Rinse the stained area with a stiff stream of water.
