Not sure what clear vinyl is regarding Sunbrella. Is it coated?

This is how I clean Sunbrella fabric on my outdoor furniture.

I wonder... on boats, the clear vinyl is called isinglass. There are some do's and don'ts regarding their cleaning that you can read here. Eisenglass Windows - How To Clean Canvas Boat Tops that includes a polish you can apply periodically as a protectant.

This google search turned up some cleaners https://www.google.com/search?q=isin...utf-8&oe=utf-8

TV Golf Cart Stores sell a spray product for the vinyl. They also sell another spray product to clean the body. Both products are used on the dealer showroom carts.

The best product is Tannery available at Ace hardware. It was recommended by the person who made the bimini for our boat. After ten years of sailing is was like new. When I asked for it at Ace, they didn't even know they had it in stock. It also conditions the glass without yellowing. I've used it since 1991 and wouldn't use anything else.
