Headliner ?
Getting ready to install the headliner and trim. What type of glue or adhesive should be applied prior to installing it? Jim

Re: Headliner ?
Just make sure you clean the surfaces really good and use the shortest screws you can find if you use screws in the trim.

Re: Headliner ?
I tried the tape once and it fell off. I can't remember if it was 3M or not... coulda been the 100 + degree tx heat.... I dunno.
I used a caulking gun full of goo on this truck, holding up awsome. |

Re: Headliner ?
I used some "headliner adhesive glue" from Classic industries (I think). maybe it was in the Paddock catalog. Anyway, I was a bit drunk when I slathered that stuff on the underside of my new headliner. That glue will get you HIGH It holds awesome... but beware: it will eat paint! I had the headliner on the hood and some glue got on the fender...
EDIT: Once you put the headliner up... Put constant, even pressure on the headliner. use 3-4 2x4's on the seat to the top to hold the headliner overnight while the glue sets...
