Default Vinyl softening..........

Hey,

I'm redoing the interior in my 89 951.
I'm focusing on the vinyl that covers the surrounding walls, ceiling, etc.
Ok, while I was prepping the work area, I noticed that ALL of the black vinyl that surrounds the rear 1/4 windows are hard and dry. I'm assuming the sun did this, but I was wondering, what can I put on the vinyl to loosen it up, to get the natural feeling back..

The condition it's in now is horrible, like if I try to bend it, it'll rip.
So if you guys could recommend some products to use on the hard vinyl I'd appreciate it.

Also, on the sunroof, there are some white marks, that do not come off with water, other than back to black, what can I use to clean the vinyl to it's original look and feel.

Thanks.

Vinylex or Meguires number 51? I think its 51, I can check tomorrow. I used Meguires on my whole interior, including the areas youre talking about and it did an awsome job.
