It is the foam, not the adhesive
A headliner is cloth bonded over a thin layer of foam on a molded board. Park in July sun and the air up there gets fierce; year after year that heat turns the foam to dust, so the cloth lets go. Spray glue rarely holds, because there is nothing left to stick to. The headliner repair CT drivers actually need is a recover.
Bubbling
Loose pockets, often near the rear glass.
Drooping

Marks

Fresh fabric, original board
The old cloth and crumbled foam come off, the board is scraped clean, and fresh foam-backed headliner material is applied as one sheet.

Headliner Questions
Questions on the headliner repair CT drivers ask most.
Will glue fix a sagging headliner?
Not for long. By the time it sags, the foam under the cloth has crumbled, so glue has nothing to grab. A recover in new foam-backed fabric is what lasts.
Can the fabric match my interior?
We pick headliner material in a shade that suits your cabin.
What if my car has a sunroof?
Say so when you send photos, so the opening is included in your quote.
Why do headliners come loose?
Heat. Summer sun on a closed car cooks the space under the roof, and the foam layer slowly crumbles.
How do I get a quote?
Send the roof lining photo and your car's make, model and year by text to (347) 310-7483 or by email to office@leatherrestorepro.com.
