is it canvass or plastic laminated?

Any biological washing powder for canvass then you can use a vax to suck it dry.... with a wallpaper stripper for the stubborn stuff :D

laminated I would use a cream cleaner like jiff or CILIT BANG, Astonish.... or any mildly abrasive compound

I think it is more like a vinyl covering than canvas .. my mistake

ok well the second choice will do the job
Some use a polishing mop with the cleaner as it speeds up the process
