I use water, mild soap (not dish soap) and a softish bristle brush on my neighbors soft top when I clean it for 'em.

Thats a good idea, Dawn dish soap or Tide laundry detergent, both work wonders on fabric.

then go to one that used to be a dealership. just b\c they aren't anymore doesn't mean they magically forgot everything.

I use this on both my wranglers, mud, clay, sap, tar, takes everything off, but you need to apply the protectant back on, to keep the top from drying out. Simmilar bottle no pic though.

Cheaper second option, Simple Green, the kind you get from HomeDepot or whereever, in a 75%/25% Mix, keep it wet and scrub rinse repeat.

We had an officer here that had sap on his cruiser and go gone didn't work. May want to look at something different.
