Before we headed off to the Northeast Gathering a few weeks back, I wanted to purdy up my OG targa top. Tried a couple of things and finally WD40. The results were MUCH better than I expected, and have held up pretty well. Maybe you all knew this already, but I was pretty excited to have figured it out.

I hate to rain on the parade but WD40 is mineral oil and wax. The mineral oil breaks down plastics and may cause swelling and cracking over time. Shoe polish similarly, is lanolin, naphtha, turpentine, paraffin wax, gum Arabic and ethylene glycol.. Just wax would be a better in the long run.
