A bathroom mould removing spray? Might work.

definitely NOT, these contain bleaches and you will end up with pink or orange splodges.

You need to brush the roof down with a soft brush.

Soft soap flakes with warm water brush and agitate rinse off clean water.

Warm soapy water and a soft brush.

I use one that I picked up from wilkinsons, about 6" x 3" with very soft bristles.

Failing that, a dedicated cleaner like 303 aerospace then there protectant on top.

Mine had a few bits of mould around the stitching when it was in the bodyshop but came off easily enough.

Avoid scratching away at it as that may damage the roof.

I used Milton Baby Fluid, About 250ml in 5l bucket of warm not hot water, work it into your roof very gently with a soft brush leave to soak for 30 mins and rinse with plain water, use a hose with a sprinkler or just throw buckets of water over it dont jet wash it, leave to dry then hoover with a brush fitting I promise it will come up like new and the green crap won't come back for 12 month.
If you search google you will see that most valeters use this method and charge you for the exspensive 303 treatment
