I have no idea how they got there, but I have several spots on my headliner that appears to be hand prints. I KNOW I didn't put them there, so my only thought was maybe it was my window tinting guy. Regardless, I have two spots in the back and one on an a-pillar. Anyone have any ideas as to the best way to scrub them out? Should I just try a sponge with soap and water? I don't want to spread it and make it worse yet.

sex is difficult in the 8 - not surprising you have prints on the roof .
Try some dishwashing detergent and a wet rag .

I used Simple Green, I sprayed it on the headliner, let it sit for about 10 mins, and I wiped it off. :)

Mr. Clean Magic Eraser does an awesome job. I should have taken before/after when I did mine.

I touched it up lightly using acetone.

soap and water does the trick, if its greasy type stain use something else if not you'll just rub it in deeper.

My friend left nasty handprints on my headliner. He was a mechanic and swore by something called "Dry Clean". Then we tried GriotsGarage.com Inerior Ceaner at a detailing party. Worked amazing, we both bought bottles. Works on everything, including fabric, vinyls, plastics.

Meguiars makes an upholstery cleaner. I used it on the headliner after the dealership replaced my sunroof; worked GREAT!!

I use a product originally make for carpet stain removal. It's called Bissel Oxy Kic. It sprays on and wipes away leaving a pretty dry spot. I've used in car for getting the smell and stain of vomit out of my back seat (thanks drunk friend) and to get stains out of the headliner.
Works very well for all kinds of stains, organic and petroleum. Amazing how it doesn't push around grease or oil. Good stuff and you can easily pick it up at Home Depot, Sears, Target...

I used Tuff-Stuff on mine after one of the mechanics left 2 huge finger/palm prints on the headliner around the sunvisors on both sides. And it does not leave any residue that you can see later.
It can be found in most auto parts stores... and Walmart..:)
