A detailer friend of mine actually uses a household bathroom bleach spray to clean headliners. He cleaned a light gray headliner that had soda, dirt, fingerprints and ink stains on it. He sprayed it on a rag first then rubbed it down in sections. Came out AMAZING! I wouldn't spray it directly on the headliner.

As a detailer, I generally stick to products manufactured for auto applications, to ensure the safety of the car, and make the best end result.

He works for a small used car dealer, And they're cheap. So you know how that goes, They don't want to spend money on real car cleaning products, So my buddy has to improvise.

I used to use a Sprayway Foaming Glass Cleaner for that kind thing. It was really good about pulling odors and nicotine out of fabrics. Also great at shining chrome and (surprise) cleaning glass.

Spray it on and let it foam and soak in a bit to loosen up things and then wipe it off. Repeat as needed. As with any new product, test it in a small inconspicuous area first, but I've never had an issue with it.
