Grease on the headliner? What's best to remove it?
It's bicycle grease from stuffing my road bike in the back seat with out being very careful.

Of course, I don't want to discolor or otherwise mess up the material in order to get the grease off.

TIA.

Its kind gay that I know this, but get one of those Tide detergent pens, just rub it on like a highlighter.

Try some Tuff Stuff. Goo Gone will get the grease but I'm not sure how it will do with the headliner, might want to try just a little to loosen the grease and then use the Tuff Stuff.

Spot Shot! Best thing ever. Will take it right off and you'll never know it was there.

Did the same thing to my car, only with grease on my finger tip ...

Thanks, Good to know. But what about the old fashion rubbing alcohol?

A small amount of goof off on a cloth will remove it without harm.
