Cleaning the headliner

Anyone performed this task to remove stains? My sunroof door and the front area of the headliner has water stains-warranty? Also my visor has this **** on it that looks like a greasy print, how it got there I will never know. Thanks all.

Hey Don,

As far as the Water Stains go it could be a warranty issue as long as you can prove it leaks in the closed position ?

And the greasy print probably came unexpectadly at some point from you being Mr. Nice Guy with doing all those Mods !

Good Luck,

one time when I took my car in to have the rattle in the headliner fixed, they left their greasy finger prints all over it. As soon as I got in my car that was the first thing I checked, I went right back in and told them, they sprayed this stuff on the grease and within like 20 seconds it was gone. I literally watched it disappear.

LOL!
Kevin, you're killing me!
But I think you may have a good point in how the stain inadvertently got there.

What have you tried on it, Don?

Ever get a stain the shape of a pair of feet on the headliner?

I'd love to know what that stuff was! Any idea?

My dealer used a product called Spray 9 (nine)

I now have some of my own.

Works like magic.
