No, but you are on the right track. I put a lot of plain wally world hand soap in a bucket, add water and work it into the top, with a soft paint brush. Then rinse. The key here is the word, soap!

IMO carwash soap works just as well in my 50 years of owning ragtops...

I can highly recommend Autoglym Cabriolet Cleaning Kit that includes a waterproofer
