What are the methods for repairing a sagging headliner?
1 Answers
Here are detailed explanations for different scenarios of headliner sagging: 1. Edge adhesive failure: This is often caused by aging of the fabric sponge, leading to edge detachment. Use specialized automotive adhesive or bonding products. Separate along the edge, apply adhesive, let it dry for 3-5 minutes, then reattach. 2. Central headliner collapse: For mid-section sagging or detachment, consider using retention clips. Choose clips that match the original color. 3. Large-area headliner detachment: This requires complete headliner removal. Remove the old fabric, clean all aged sponge material from the surface, prepare new headliner fabric and specialized adhesive. Apply adhesive to both surfaces, wait 3-5 minutes, then bond. Finally, reinstall the headliner.
