Doggy Drool

What will remove dried dog saliva stains from the top panel (over the glove box)? I tried plain water and Amour All Interior Detailer but they don't go away.

Home Depot has a Zep branded cleaner with Oxy, don't recall exact name but it cleans the dog saliva off the floor pretty easily so you might try that. Test it in a panel area out of sight to make sure it doesn't ruin the finish. It isn't very aggressive so I think it will be ok.

Nature's Miracle is miraculous

I've used Nature's Miracle (an liquid cleaner with enzymes) to remove pet urine stains and odors, as well as blood, wine, and smashed blueberries out of carpets and clothing. It's easy to find at pet stores and amazon. As another responder suggested, test in inconspicuous spot first!

Lexol Leather Cleaner does a great job on interior panels, not just leather.

assuming you have allowed it to dry

warm water with a lil soap

you need to allow it to soak .....

I'd lay an old wash cloth over the area and drip warm water to keep it damp for an hour or so .... this should break down the goo ......

welll ... actually I ZAP the area with my steam cleaner ..... takes longer to set up the cleaner than the cleaning!!!!!
