My wind deflector is very dirty, looks like someones pissed on it and it's stained. I have a plan to paint / dye it this summer.

Be careful what you use, as it seems to be fairly delicate fabric.

Sorry Lee, I totally forgot to actually give you an answer to this!

Some Meguiars APC diluted 10:1, spray a light mist on and agitate with a very soft brush, then mist with clean warm water. Blot off any remaining moisture & allow to dry naturally.
