Especially relevant: misting overhead · in enclosed space
Translated from the manufacturer’s Safety Data Sheet, Section 8
H320 (EU CLP eye irritation Cat 2B) at SDS §2, plus overhead aerosol foam application at close range; spray and foam fallout descend directly toward the applicator's face.
U.S. regulatory standard
29 CFR 1910.133(a)(1)
“appropriate eye or face protection when exposed to eye or face hazards from… liquid chemicals…”
ANSI Z87.1 (incorporated via §1910.6)
OSHA standards apply to workplaces. Cited here as the U.S. reference threshold for the underlying hazard class.

Translated from the manufacturer’s Safety Data Sheet, Section 2
No H315 or H317 at SDS §2; situational tier from extended blotting contact during repeated application.

Only when: in enclosed space · misting overhead
Translated from the manufacturer’s Safety Data Sheet, Section 8
H332 (harmful if inhaled, Acute Inhalation Toxicity Cat 4) at SDS §2 mixture level, with H335/H331/H330/H334 absent; aerosol foam delivery in an enclosed vehicle cabin is a real inhalation pathway, but the tier does not escalate to recommended without H335.
U.S. regulatory standard

Scope of these PPE tiers. The tiers on this page translate the product's Safety Data Sheet where one is published, plus its ingredient chemistry, into a comparable rating. They describe a formulation, not a situation: a tier is not a safety determination for any specific user, task, quantity, or environment. The manufacturer's label and use instructions govern how the product is handled. Where the product is used at work, the employer's PPE program and hazard assessment under 29 CFR 1910.132 decide what protection is selected, not this page.

TL;DR Aerosol foam with Odor-X odor elimination lifts food, smoke, and pet stains from headliner and upholstery fabric; foam clings overhead instead of running, so no board sagging is documented in community use. H320 eye irritation: overhead application sends mist and foam fallout toward the applicator's face, so eye contact is a real pathway here.
Power Out! dispenses as aerosol foam through a detachable micro-scrub brush cap; foam clings to the surface instead of running, giving better moisture control overhead than a liquid pump spray, the core advantage for headliner board safety. Community evidence, concentrated on seat and carpet use, shows strong results on food, smoke, and pet odors, including overnight odor elimination in a closed vehicle. No board delamination or sagging reports surfaced, and it dries residue-free on dark fabric; firm brush bristles can snag delicate weaves at aggressive angles.
A strong pick for OEM cloth headliners and upholstery with smoke, food, or pet odor problems, where the foam format keeps application volume forgiving. Owners of Alcantara or suede-type headliners should verify compatibility first; community data on those substrates is absent. Buyers targeting heavy hair-product grease may do better with a dedicated extraction-based cleaner with headliner-specific confirmation.
WARNING signal word, driven by the propane/isobutane propellants (H220 flammable gas, H280 pressurized container; physical hazards only) and by H332 (harmful if inhaled) and H320 (eye irritation Cat 2B) at SDS §2. H332 with aerosol delivery in an enclosed cabin is a real, situational inhalation pathway; apply with doors open. H320 with overhead application sends fallout toward the face directly; eye protection is a genuine precaution here. Skin contact is situational, from repeated blotting only. The formula is water-based with no PFAS and no aquatic-toxicity H-codes; VOC is estimated below 50 g/L. The blotting cloth is the drain pathway, via laundry.
The aerosol foam format is well-suited for headliner use because the foam clings to the surface rather than running, allowing better volume control than a liquid pump spray. No board delamination or sagging reports were found in community reviews, though available evidence is primarily from seat and carpet use. Apply a light mist, blot promptly, and do not soak the fabric.
The product targets food and drink stains (coffee, juice, grease), smoke odor, pet accidents, mud, ink, and general fabric soils. Community reviews confirm strong results on food and smoke odors; the Odor-X component neutralizes odors at the molecular level rather than masking them.
Odor elimination is the product's standout feature. Owners document effective odor removal from smoke, pet accidents, and food spills, including reports of full odor elimination from a vomit incident that sat overnight in a closed vehicle.
The WARNING signal word is driven by aerosol propellants (flammable gas H220, pressurized container H280) and by H332 (harmful if inhaled, Acute Inhalation Toxicity Cat 4) and H320 (eye irritation Cat 2B) at the SDS §2 mixture level. Applying with doors open reduces the inhalation exposure the H332 classification describes.
