Subject: Re: Sagging headliner repair, glasstop removable screen [snsappics]... by Schrade on 2014/10/23 18:23:43 If your old painted top headliner foam is broken up too badly, you have a few options... Mine was borderline. I took a mini-roller, and painted my OEM pad with water-based Acrylic Latex Black. This does a few things: stops dust from coming through the new felt, re-enforces the borderline pad, and gives the felt adhesive a good bonding surface. A rattle can of Flat Black, or Clear Poly can will probably do a pretty good job as well. But the rolled-on water-based stuff gets INTO the OEM pad, for strength. Another option for broken-up OEM pad is new pad. I don't know where, or how much. A 3rd option would be to use the same double-layer styro board that I'm using for the glasstop removable screen. See below here... Gluing the new felt into place: Get the new felt centered. Flip back 1/2 of the new felt, and spread some adhesive onto the pad.  (DO NOT PRESS DOWN TOO HARD - THE ADHESIVE WILL COME THROUGH THE FELT) Then flip it over, and repeat for the other half:  |
