Best products to clean headliner?

[Mudhorn]

For the car cleaning gurus what is the best product for cleaning the headliner?

How badly stained/dirty is it?

For our 21TD03 Recall for the Tacoma 3rd Brake Lamps, Toyota specifically wants us to use either ZEP Foaming Glass Cleaner or Toyota Genuine
Glass Cleaner with a micro fiber cloth to attempt to remove staining from the headliners.

I didn't think it would work that great, but I have a can of the Toyota stuff and it works really well for cleaning up a headliner if I accidentally get a spot of grime on it or if I am helping a customer out.

Here's a section from the technical instructions detailing how to clean the staining out of the headliners.

I've used Chemical Guys No Nonsense cleaner but there has to be something better.

Thanks for the tip. Do you think this is the same ZEP product, just in a different package?

Fantastik has worked for me excellently
On both roof and seats just use a microfiber

I used FOLEX, you can buy it at Lowes hardware, for all o my upholstery cleaning. It's in a white bottle with purple lettering. Great product with great results!

eek.. dont use anything harsh.. the headliner is very thin and delicate.. id honestly just use a microfiber towel and automotive soap... too much scrubbing you'll be down to bare plastic

I’m a former heavy smoker. The headliner was caked with tar/nicotine. I tried a bunch of diff products, tuff stuff, zep, etc. They didn’t perform well and they were expensive. I now use vinegar, baking soda, water, and a dash of lemon juice. This works flawlessly on nicotine/tar. Save your money for the good stuff and just make this up at home.
