Question for smokers (either 420 or tobacco)

Anyone else noticing that the lining on the ceiling of their car is getting a little dingy from smoke?

Is there some kind of brush or something that can be used to clean
the ceiling lining?

I don't think mine has that film, but I do have quite a film buildup on my windshield from smoke. I'll have to check the roof...

vacuum it at least once a week.....i've been doing that for the year i've had the car, and the lining is as clean as the day i got it.

You should tint your front sidemarkers to go with your headlights

my reccomendations are:
1. dont box your car (no matter how fun it is)
2. try some febreeze to get the smell out
3. try some carpet stain remover
4. soap and water

Not so fast...you want to be careful to prevent the glue from the headliner from becoming undone. I have some stains on my headliner (not smoking induced) and I plan to use Blue Coral Dri-Clean to get them out.

But before that, I plan to hit the headliner in certain spots with a spot remover.

Even with leather, it sticks like the freshish green... It sucks when it happens.
