@Reece.wilson Жыл бұрын
3M 76 is great, but expensive, I'd prefer permatex over it however for price and function. Keep in mind, spraying Any glue to the existing factory sagging roof lining is like spraying glue to dirt and hoping it will stick. Due to the old foam has most likely gone crumbly and turning to dust. That's why I suggest other quick repair Methods like staples/twist pins if not doing a full replacement with new material. And to even think about adding glue to the existing fabric and have any sort of long lasting hope, you'd have to remove the headliner and scrub off old foam then try reline the original fabric up with all the cut outs being that the fabric is most likely shrinking or over stretched in some places, at that stage it's better chucking the old fabric away and just replacing with new foam/fabric while headliner is removed out the car. ▸ Permatex headliner adhesive ebay.us/apC9ZH

@@Reece.wilson you meant 3M Super 77 Multipurpose Adhesive Spray right? If 3M is cheaper than Permatex Headliner Adhesive in my country, does that mean it’s the better option? Mostly cause I’d have to ship permatex to my country, can’t find it locally. Thanks for the tips about the crumbly dust. I’d love to get it professionally changed in a shop but in my country it’s very expensive. And in workshop we agree on prices before the work even start (that’s how it works in my country), so in that case I think I will try to fix it myself first. I’ll try with the adhesive spray first, wanting to avoid staples cause it looks ugly. If both method fails then I’ll get it fixed in a shop. If I can fix it myself I will save so much of money, the fabric headliner is still so clean. I don’t smoke or eat in the car. Thank you for replying so soon 🙏

@ReecesAutoHeadliningRepairs Жыл бұрын
There is a risk with staples and drawing pins which is a very rare chance they hit a wire behind the board that may earth out the system. Or hit a drain hose/Rear windshield washer hose for wagons and hatch backs. But other than that, stapling another piece of fabric to the board could possibly work, depends on what finish your after, I wouldn't recommend it.

I'm probably going to try the staples... But I was just curious, is there any harm in just ripping off the fabric completely? I'm not worried how it looks.

Usually would be a solid board that would require cleaning off the old foam. Would make a mess in the car and on surrounding plastic interior parts. Once old foam is removed, it's generally just a clean board. So can be left as is, however adding quality headliner fabric adds comfort, sound deadening along with heat reduction. So if I had to choose, I'd suggest recovery.

Good video, however.... Twist pin leaving damage/ indentation which most likely will show after retrimming , applying glue is messy, very messy and it won't last 5 minutes , and you are adding costs to total price of retrimming professionally. Also it makes trimmers work more difficult to clean the board out of lumps of glue and may add to the price for a job.... Normally retrimming headliner isn't cheap so i do understand "temporary solutions" especially when the car isn't worth much... but as a professional i do not appreciate when someone thy it and then " i try to fix it and it didn't work, can you help" thing, the price go up as i have to spend more time preparing the board.... Kind regards.
@ReecesAutoHeadliningRepairs2 жыл бұрын
Yes that's correct, we suggest to customers never to add in glue in the hopes to hold up a old headliner. The best quick repairs we seen customers do is just either staples or drawing pins. It's much better than glue. We don't seem to have an issue with the board having dents and imperfections from that type of quick repair.
