use mild shampoo children shampoo, then the area with the stain will normally looks cleaner so use water to wipe bigger area.

actually, u guys can try the 3M cushion cleaner. when i bought my 2nd hand car, the interior carpet roof was hella dirty! and i really mean dirty.

i took the can of 3M cushion cleaner, sprayed on the dirty area. wait for like 1 minute, and just wipe away with clean microfibre cloth. it really works...even on tough stains. but might need like 2-3 times plus abit of elbow grease.

i dunno where you can purchase it though, but i can ask my dad. coz he works in 3M and he brought it back for me. i'll post the exact name of the product and maybe attach a picture of it when i get back home on thursday.

p/s: my fren even used it to remove blood stains from his car seat.
