Raggtop cleaner highly recommended!

Bleach White might scare me a bit.
I think the material of the top is acrylic - whatever that is.
There are chemicals which make plastics brittle.
If you bleach polyester, it almost disintegrates in your hands if I remember my laundry mistakes correctly!!
I would think that Mean Green or Castrol Purple would be safer than Bleach White. However, Bleach White can sure do a nice job. It is the ultimate tire scrub and fatal to aluminum wheels.
I'd wait for a bunch of people (not one) to say BW is ok.

Don't use anything with bleach in it. It is too harsh for the fabric. Plus, it is an oxidizer--it will be bad for your paint and metal parts.
One thing I have seen first hand....Someone I know used a bleach based cleaner on a black top. When it dried, the top color ranged the full spectrum from dark green to yellow, streaked and blotchy. It was a real mess.
If a product specifically made for vert tops will not remove the stain, take your car to an automotive trim shop or an automotive detail shop and get their recommendations. Without seeing your specific problem first hand--I'd be cautious about selecting the recommendations for a fix.
