Default How to clean roof lining??

Now then all.
I got myself a new roof lining for the car off ebay the other day, after a quick look at it I rolled it up and put a away, but it is a lil grubby and nicotine stained. What the best way to clean it? washing machining or hand washing? best products to use too?
Cheers

I have thought that I do need to clean the carpet too, that is rolled up in my spare room. Wasn't sure how to best clean that either.
They are both out of the car, that what made me think of the washing machine, but don't wanna bugger my roof or carpet up tho, nor bust my mums washing machine, or I will be fucked!lol

Get some interior cleaner mate, g101 from auto smart is what I use at work, spray it on, leave on for a minute, use a nail brush to scrub it and sponge it off with clean water, if you were closer i would sort it for you

i opted to take the roof lining out to clean in with wet vac and carpet shampoo from the top side there was a lot of grime and the under side with a soft sponge and warm soapy water made the car smell alot better too.
