Default Cleaning/maintaining top

I tried searching, but i dont know if i am using the correct terms.

What lubricants/conditioning agents can we use to keep the tops on good condition. My top is going a kind of greyish colour. I was thinking something that is silicon based to give it a nice shine, but i am not sure. Silicon tends to attract dirt! Anyone help?

I use panty repellant. Better safe than sorry ... you never know if they're going to be the thong or the granny bloomer variety.

Wow.....that sounds so technical. Check out this thread. I've used both and find 303 to be just as effective and a lot cheaper and easier to locate.

I've now used both Ragg Topp and 303 and find that I prefer how 303 makes the top look in addition to being less expensive and a little more readily available as has been stated.

Yes you do. Grannys are too slow, and you're too fast. Thongs... Well, that's another story.
