RaggTopp makes a cleaner for the canvas. Be careful of using a carwash product that adds a 'shine' to the paint. It is reported to not be good for the top. I hose mine off with some pressure but do not clean it often. RT also makes a product for waterproofing the top. It is probably the one most recommended. Actually it is only naptha and wax but it does do a good job. Makes the top look like new and beads the water. You need to mask the entire car with a thin plastic drop cloth to keep the wax off the windows and paint. Any over spray is a mess to clean up as it requires a petroleum cleaning product to get it all off which means you get to wax the paint again.

Well fellas I hate to disappoint you but when I wash my car I wash the roof and I use dish washing Dawn. As for the roof I treated it with RaggTop http://www.gusglikas.com/AutoRepairRoofCond.htm and it did a great job.

Just a little tip (in case you guys haven't thought of this):
I just re-proofed my top last night using Raggtopp and I put plain kitchen plastic wrap over the glass and paint. It sticks on contact, is fast, easy to manipulate and use, doesn't hurt the paint and removing the wrap takes seconds.
