    I`ve cleaned "soda" spray which sprayed up top on a customers "headliner" which is carpeted. As well on another, a cigarette butt burned a stain on another.



    I gave it the Sean T Busch oxi clean and brush but found the soft carpet to "fray" with my brushing. Now the stain is out, but the carpeted is frayed and I had to trim it down.



    Is there any method which removes the stain but does not disturb the carpet headliner

    as much ?





    any suggestions would be greatly appreciated



    thx

    For soda on headliners, I use a MF and woolite 1:6. Wring out MF so it is only damp, not soaking, and rub GENLTY using short strokes. So far, so good.

    I use the same method as well, in fact I just cleaned my gf`s headliner last night. After seeing Paul`s (white95max) progress on his car, I had to try it out.



    I think the only way you`d be able to not fray the delicate material is to try blotting it instead of scrubbing.

    Use the solution with an MF (saturated) and rub it in. Follow with a dry MF.





    You could also try Folex or Kids&Pets, just spray on, let dwell, and wipe away.
