It is usually only used for very dirty headliners or those that have managed to absorb plenty of odor. Be warned, however, that this should only be used as a last resort. Using a steam cleaner can ruin the headliner.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To use the steam cleaner, make sure to only work small sections at a time. Spray on solution and then use a vacuum for any remaining sections of the headliner. Be careful to not saturate the headliner because it can ruin the glue that holds the headlines together in one piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even fabric steamers can also be used. Pretreating with the use of upholstery and then steaming. And after that, the headliner will be brushed and vacuumed. The important thing is to allow for enough drying time. Turn on fans and leave doors and windows open.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_You_Shampoo_a_Car_Headliner\"><\/span>Can You Shampoo a Car Headliner?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, you can use shampoo to clean your headliner. And the best kind of shampoo to use for this purpose is a carpet and upholstery shampoo. A bottle of this type of shampoo should be more than enough to help you clean an entire car headliner.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The great thing about using an upholstery shampoo is that it is gentle compared to other cleaners. So there should be no worry because it is not going to harm the fabric at all.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the primary abilities of this shampoo is its ability to eliminate odors. So even if you travel frequently with your pets, the smell should not be much of an issue. The same can be said if you are a smoker. Eliminating the smell of the smoke that got caught up in the fabric shouldn\u2019t be much of a problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_do_Professionals_Clean_Car_Upholstery_With\"><\/span>What do Professionals Clean Car Upholstery With?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Car owners obviously want to keep their car upholstery as spotless and clean as possible. Professionals have plenty of techniques to make sure that happens.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will take a look at some of the spot cleaning techniques for different types of stains that the pros use:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>For stains on leather upholstery, it should first be pre-treated. Do this by using a leather conditioner. After pre-treating, apply a leather stain remover and then rub it. Let it sit for about 30 seconds then wipe it off.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>For oily stains, use a cotton cloth and a watered-down formula made of paint thinner. Use the cloth to rub the formula into the stain. Sprinkle with salt and let it sit overnight.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>If you need to remove coffee stains, use cold water to dilute the stain and a paper towel to blot it. Put some glass cleaner and let sit for 5 minutes.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Leaks and stains in your car are nothing new.
