Upholstery cleaning?
If you had a black plastic, light colored fabric interior that had some tire scuffs and brake dust, what would you use to clean it? Asking for a friend with a not so happy wife. Thanks!

Yes, that stuff is awesome. Not sure I've tried your exact use case, but worth a try.

I highly recommend Gonzo Stain Remover.
We bought a small bottle (4 oz) at Bed Bath and Beyond years ago and it worked better than anything else we used. When it ran out, I bought a gallon on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Gonzo-Stain-Re...+stain+remover

I tired it a bit. Wi the garage and interior lighting, it's hard to tell which parts are dirty, which are shadows, etc. Shining a flashlight just blow it all out to look all clean. I tried it on a few places that I know were dirty, but going over it with a damp cloth after makes it look damp (like I'd expect). I'm going to have to wait to see it in sunlight, I think.
