headliner spray adhesive
A sagging roof liner is one of the most common car interior headaches, and the right headliner spray adhesive is what makes a repair last. Ordinary craft glue can let go once a parked car heats up in the sun. A purpose-made headliner glue is designed to grip foam-backed fabric to the headliner board and hold through temperature swings.
What to Look For in Headliner Glue
Heat Resistance
Roofs get hot, so look for a high temp spray adhesive that is labeled for automotive or upholstery use. Check the product description for its rated temperature range.
Even Spray Pattern
An adjustable or wide fan nozzle helps you lay down a smooth, consistent coat without soaking through to the face of the fabric.
Compatibility With Foam
Most headliner fabric has a thin foam backing. Choose an adhesive that says it is safe for foam so it won't dissolve or stain the material.
Tips for a Successful Sagging Headliner Repair
- Scrape off old, crumbling foam from the board first.
- Spray both surfaces when the label calls for it, and wait for the glue to get tacky.
- Smooth the fabric from the center outward to avoid wrinkles.
