But why just on he stitching and why did it show up on mine after they stopped salting the roads? Sorry but I am not in the mood to lick my truck today to find out for sure....Saltfor sure.

The stitches are the leaching points. Everyone does not use the same chemicals to de-ice. Looks like my winter shoes. Stuff isn’t good for any part of any vehicle.

It definately seems like salt, or some type of waterproofing. My top is still doing fine, and I keep it outside in western Oregon. It's been through rain, hail, snow,..... everything but a car wash. (I wash it by hand) Seems to be ok so far. The white went away too.
Living in Oregon with all that rain, it's not surprising you're dealing with some unusual stuff on your Bronco. The white substance you mentioned does sound a bit like mold, especially with the damp conditions.

Living in Oregon with all that rain, it's not surprising you're dealing with some unusual stuff on your Bronco. The white substance you mentioned does sound a bit like mold, especially with the damp conditions. Before you break out the heavy-duty scrubbing, you might want to try a mixture of warm water and white vinegar. It's a gentler way to tackle mold, and it often does the trick. Just dampen a cloth, give it a good wipe, and see if it comes off. For more expert advice, you can check out the post at https://www.damagecontrol-911.com/does-ozone-kill-mold/. It might offer some useful insights into your situation.
