@cherylcarnes4207 2 года назад

Thank you Troy. My little Volvo suffers from 112* sun this last summer. The headliner above the drivers seat is falling down. I had the sunroof cracked open too. I have the visor pushed forward so I don't have to look at it. I'm going to fix it myself. I'm 68, and a grandmother of 7, but I'm going to try. I asked one of my sons to fix it for me and he said to look it up on RU-vid and fix it. So here I am. Thanks again.

@cclawncare1 6 лет назад

Thanks for the video. Looks good. Here is a tip for others. If you follow instructions on the can to keep spray nozzles a foot or so away from surface, it then "spiderweb's" and is way taker and won't be as quick to saturate cloth. End result is less bleed thru spots.

@bridgettegoff7839 3 года назад

Instead of tape and drape, I used Press and Seal (find on the grocery aisle with plastic wrap, wax paper and such). The bonus to me of using that was the ability to cover dome lights that I didn't want to remove to reattach the headliner.

@FoxRivers778 3 года назад

I too used the 3M Headliner Adhesive as well. However, you need to let it try at least 5 minutes or it will soak through the fabric. I used plastic kitchen wrap to protect the window and plastic trash bags to protect the upholstery underneath. I was able to use my fingers to smooth out the fabric pretty well but the spoon is a nice touch.

If the backing foam is degraded, use the spoon to remove old foam first. Even if it is just the first inch or so. I will be doing this too. I've done entire headliners before and I'd rather do the stitch in time! Good video. I concur!

@troysgarage 2 года назад

@ryderinblack 4 года назад

Instead of doing it in a one time attempt, you should instead start from the internal area where it isn't adhered and work your to the edge,stretching it out as you work your way to the edge, also don't over apply the spray, you'll saturate the fabric and can end up allowing the subtance to surface which will compromise the material texture and feel, you want it 30% under the material if that makes semse

@AdamWiseman11 5 лет назад

You've inspired me, I'm gonna try this to fix my '04 Explorer that's sagging in the same spot. Question though: Any particular reason you went with a "general purpose" spray adhesive (the Loctite) vice using a dedicated headliner adhesive, such as 3M's 38808 Headliner and Fabric Adhesive? I'm no expert, just wondering.
