What product to clean headlining and pillar material?
As per the title. Already got a few grubby marks on the B pillars, sun visors and headlining. What cleaning product do you recommend?

Thanks. It's a totally different type of material from that in the D3, so grateful for any tips.

This is going to sound mad but brake cleaner, trust me just try it, great for dirty patches.

It's a solvent! Personally wouldn't dream of it.
I've used VAX carpet cleaner in solution and some left over Rug Doctor stuff we had; used a toothbrush with a warm solution for both and gave them a good rinse. Worked perfectly. Autoglym stuff is also excellent. Baby wipes are great for smaller stains.PAGODA

Solvent meaning what? It is mostly methanol, and it works I have used with great results no staining and no adverse effects.
