Hi Charlie,
Yes I did use it on vinyl as well. I found their Porsche Black (it is
more semi-gloss than their regular black) was perfect for the
convertible top on my BJ8. I used a two inch foam brush to apply. The
top in question is the original from the factory. It came out great and
still looks good approx. nine years later. Take care.
