W123 - Rust stains surrounding rear domelight cover

In cleaning the interior of my 300D, I have noticed some rust stains around the rear dome-light cover on the headliner material. I dont think there ever was a leak as the gaskets look good around the rear window.

Perhaps it was some thermal condensation that collected there. Anyone seen this before?

The headliner is white and basic cleaning does not remove the rust stains. Perhaps they could be colored with a white marker or something similar?

sykes, you might want to try some Oxyclean on the rust stain.

Better to live with the result of attempted cleaning than covering the stain because it will be difficult/impossible to match the headliner color, and the cover color will be more noticeable.
