yeah yeah thats what i meant!

yeah the headliner is grey....its not really a fabric either...its more of a stitched material....i scrubbed it with dish soap and warm water for awhile...it cleaned some up but mostly spread it out and made it a lighter color...i guess i'll keep working on it.

lol, there is no foam in the ceilings of our cars. pretty much a liner then the roof.

Try takin a little carpet cleaner, and if you can get ahold of a steamer or extractor, have at it.

i have a steamer i was gonna try that next....the ceiling pretty much seems like a piece of cardboard.

I have never taken the headliner out of a car to clean it... Just go to a detail shop and ask them to clean the ceiling. Theyll charge you 20 bucks maybe

I have cleaned 100's of head liners and NOT once have we had to remove the headliner to clean it.. The best way for a diy'er is to buy some foam cleaner and spray it up there and use a damp rag and rub it clean .. or pay a detail shop to clean it wit the right tools.

I know its been a month or so since the last post and you probably have got the headliner cleaned, but I'll throw in my 2 cents! Theres this stuff called Crazy Clean. It comes in a red & white can. You can get it at Berg Fargo Motor auto parts store over by Wheels) Its about $3 or $4. Its an all purpose cleaner that is gentle on all surfaces & works really well! You just spray on a nice mist and wipe the area a few times with a clean rag. I detail with it all the time!
