Johndeere r series headliner cleaning

Hi,

Does anyone have any tips and can recommend any products for cleaning marks off a John Deere r series headliner?

Bonus points if any recommended products can be purchased in New Zealand.

Cheers

I’ve never understood how people get their cabs so grubby, unless it’s a feeding tractor or similar where anyone and everyone jumps on.

Grubby hands in tractors is a massive hate of mine. Just wear gloves whenever your out of the cab fitting/removing pipes, taking a trailer sheet up, putting a shaft on etc.

Im the same. Wear gloves when handling hydraulic couplings or PTO as better grip of them and some protection against skinned knuckles.

Always clean and tidy if I have a designated machine to drive. Anything else drives me nuts.

I can’t understand it either, I keep my tractor looking factory fresh but I unfortunately can’t say the same about some of the drivers we employ.

When you dropping bales off for sheep in 6 inch of sh!t around feeders you might be more realistic about you cab :ROFLMAO:

i like it clean but i also like to use my machines for there designed purpose which often involves muddy boots...

different for arable farmers i agree

Boots are one thing, cab floor or protective rubber mat can be removed and hosed

If I was getting out to feed bales I’d still put gloves on. Clean hands, clean controls and headlining :)
 
Just above the radio where ledge to steady your hand is located is the where i find the dirtiest spot is .

Life is simple for owner drivers or single driver machines but it gets a little harder when your a contractor employing a lot of seasonal staff that have to swap machines regularly especially in these times when getting half decent staff is hard work to start with .

Hydrogen peroxide cleaners can work when others fail. It's the 'Vanish oxi-action' fabric stain remover stuff, just try it on an inconspicuous area first. Generally so long as it doesn't soak in and can be wiped off it won't cause any damage and works really well on stains

How many hour's a year are you putting on a tractor? It's not easy when you put a lot of hours on and not hours sitting doing the same job hours when there's a lot of machines to swap gates to open stones to pick etc etc machines to fix in the field not the workshop and a few different drivers things can soon get a bit grubby
