I never clean the headliner in my car. It's not dirty. If I clean it what fabric cleaner could I use.

Headliners: require special care and attention.

Cloth type headliners are assembled with foam backing and usually glued to a fibber roof panel. If the headliner becomes wet, it can cause the head liner to delaminate and fall down. An interior cleaner ( 303 Fabric & Vinyl Cleaner) should be used. Spray onto a terry towel. Do not spray directly onto head lining . Wipe lightly making sure not to leave headliner wet. Inspect and re-clean as necessary. It is better to clean twice, rather than to allow the head liner to get too wet. An alcohol based aerosol glass cleaner may also work for this operation because of its quick evaporation. Vinyl headliners should be cleaned the same way.

~Hope this helps~
