Headliner Material

[NoLimit95]

Would this stuff be good to redo a headliner at home? Is it big enough to do the entire piece?

If so, I need to know what the best and strongest adhesive is to use. I have to get this old dry rotted lite graphite piece out of my car. I got the new black visors in, just need the headliner now and I'm done with the interior.

3m makes an adhesive spray just for this application.

Yeah, I seen that at O'Reilly's but wanted to make sure it would work with that stuff before ordering it. I suppose the headliner board needs to be sprayed and the back side of the headliner material so that it has a two way bond. I think I can handle it lol. Shouldn't take more than an hour or an hour 1/2 with trimming and cutting off the edges.

You can also get the 3m spray glue at wal-mart. The fabric if you have a hancock fabric near you goes for $10 a yard. Just done a headliner in a 97 mountaineer and it's holding up good except where we used cheap non 3m glue.

The reason I'm wanting what I picked out is because it's padded like the original. Kinda like insulation and a sound deaden-er with the system in the car.

I just did mine, and used fabric from Walmart, and fabric glue from Wal-mart.

What type of fabric did you use and what was the total cost? Is it still cushioned like the factory headliner?

The stuff from a fabric store like hancock is padded, that's why I got it there.
