I've got a black materialled hood and I haven't put any sort of weathering protector on it, it now has stains on it from the weather. I've tried scrubbing them off with fairy liquid and water but can't get rid of them.
Any ideas?

You can use a cleaner with bleach in it, but be careful it is not so strong as to weaken your tops material. I had a light colored top and always cleaned a certian part, that part was the first to wear out.

Autoglym do a soft top cleaner, not sure of actual name of it but you should be able to get it from any good stockist.
I used to work in a Volvo dealership and the valet bay there uses this stuff and it does a great job, we used to charge about 70-80 quid for the service. Most car valeting places should be able to do this for you, unless ur feeling adventurous enough to give it a go for urself, but i'd leave it to a pro.
Hope this helps.

Call a shop that installs convertible tops for ideas on what to clean it with. I would suggest Simple Green or some other heavy duty cleaner but try it in a small area first.

If it's a white top, I'd try 50/50 bleach water with a soft brush, rinse well. I've always known bleach to work well on all mold and your top should be of a canvas material, we use it on the boat all the time.
