Someone last weekend told me they use shoe polish on their vinyl top and I had to admit that was a new one on me. I've been and will likely continue to sue, Meguiars or Autoglym on my top but I had to ask, is there anyone out there using shoe polish?
I've not heard of since 60-70's :lol:
Shoe polish would be ok as it wont have the same affect as some of the products on the market containing oils, silicon etc a recipe for disaster its like throwing oil all over yourself and standing in the sun :flame:
Yeah heard that back in the day, lol.
I used to use liquid gold it would suck in to the top I also used to use turtle wax black top wax
First I've heard of the shoe polish or Turtle Wax top wax. So if it's a thing from "back in the day", is it ok to use?
We used it to add more color to crappy worn looking tops. Pledge furniture polish pre Armor All days for interior. I'd say no as now has much better stuff.
the bad part about the top wax was until it would dry in the top the black would get on your hands
That sounds like something that a shiester used car salesman would do!
Never heard about on a vinyl roof, but sounds interesting. Brings back a story I was told about using shoe polish on selected slate shingles to get the right effect on some house/mansion my grandpa was hired to work on in the 30's. I think they wanted something that matched the landscaping.

I saw it when I got some wax for the car thought i'd try it made it really shiny black it lasted for a long time used liquid gold it was before armor all it would dry out in about 2 weeks or get dusty I took the vinyl top off the car last year only had one spot where the top cracked open and that was on a seam they both kept top soft
