Re: Cleaning Roof-linnings,
A cloth and some APC is all I use,spray it on the cloth and wipe over.If you make it too wet use another cloth to dry it.

Re: Cleaning Roof-linnings,
how to clean the headlining in a car with a cream interior
do not whatever you do let it get dirty
damp cloth and a dry cloth if it manages to get dirty.
