Fabric ceilings
Anyone clean their ceilings? Hesitate to put any liquid type cleaner on it.

- Well I don't have any stains, so I think I will use vac for dust, etc. and see if I can detect any difference. Thanks to all who replied.

I have had great luck with Folex,on my Fabric ceilings just spray it on and BLOT don't rub,you will be amazed at how it lifts out any stains.
It may take more than one application but it cleaned it all.
You can get it at most big box home improvement stores or Amazon check out the reviews and pictures on Amazon.
I agree, Folex is a great product for any fabric. Does a great job on the rug in our RV.- If the ceiling is covered with fabric like mine is.

- I was concerned that applying too much moisture would release the adhesive and cause mine to sag. The kitchen area was quite a mess with the grease and such from cooking. It looked like stalagmites. I used simple green in a spray bottle and a damp rag. Was able to clean the surface without soaking it through. Worked like a champ. Neck and shoulders took a beating though.
- Instagone is what we used for stains in our 2003 Adventurer.
- I remember talking to a guy selling a class C that did his entire ceiling with an upholstery extractor.
I would assume that any upholstery extractor shampoo (must be low foaming) would work.
If I was going to do any cleaning like that (I did my carpet with an extractor) I would wait till summer on a warm day. And also have plenty of fans for air movement to dry things out. - I remember using a very weak bleach solution some years ago. I haven't cleaned it in a long time as I'm old and lazy.
