I found these links for you: http://www.bishopmuseum.org/research/pdfs/cnsv-tapa.pdf#search=%22cleaning%20tapa%20cloth%20%22

The following article is long and tedious, very scientific. But it seems they found the best method to clean was using a sponge eraser. I think they are referring to a "Mr. Clean Magic Eraser". Good Luck!

The Bishop Museum one made it sound like you have a very valuable find, and that maybe you should be creating your own museum with it!
