Default For some reason using that didn't come to mind. doh....Mentally I put headliner in a different
catagory.

I'll give it a whirl. The marks are minor, but annoying. I replaced my vanity light with dirty hands!

Default Oh and I should mention...for the carpets I need something stronger. My mats are terrible
I usually scrub them with a stiff brush and some dish detergent, but its a major PIA. I'm thinking of buying all weather mats or 'exact mat' covers.

Default I've had good luck w/ 303 Aerospace for headliner.
For carpets, you can try using 303 and spraying hot water on the carpet as well. That will work as an extractor.

Default i used adam's upholstery and carpet cleaner on my beige interrior, it removed the
smudges i put on the pilliars when i installed my nav system. I was impressed how quickly it worked and ease of use.
