What is best for cleaning the targa pad and sail panel vinyl? I'm referring to the black vinyl on the top of the targa bar and the sides of the targa top support.

I tried water and a rag and it looks good wet, but when it dries much of the dirt is still there.

Soap and water? What kind of soap (specific type; i.e. dish soap, etc.)
Simple green?
Window cleaner?
Armorall?
Should I use a rag or paper towels or something else?

Anything I should avoid?

I use Back to Black out of a bottle. You don't want it getting everywhere. It is a bit greasy when dry, so use sparingly.

I use 303 on all vinyl and rubber. Gives a "hydrated" look, with out a full on greasy shine. To me its the perfect look.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) 303 is the best that I have used. I pour it in a Dixie cup and use a small foam brush to apply it. I let in soak in to the bumper tops and on my targa bar. UV protectant and lasts a long time. Good for all the rubber seals on the car.
