Unhappy 382 Headliner

What is the adhesive used to attach the headliner to the backing board?

Mine has let go in several places, and is hanging down in large "bubbles."

Thanks for any advice/help.

The same thing happened to my 1997 271 FASTech last year while I was in Iraq. I guess being closed up and covered outdoors all summer in the Texas heat caused it to degrade. When I got in there this spring to glue it back up with spray on contact cement I found the thin foam backing on the headliner had disintegrated. When I glued it together it just peeled off again with a 1/4" layer of foam attached. The bottom line was an entirely new headliner, front to back, professionally installed at a boat upholstery shop for a whopping $3K . Two shops I took the boat to wouldn't even do the job. It took the guy three days to tear out the old one and scrub out the old foam with a wire brush before he could glue the new headliner in place. I lost about 6 weeks with the boat waiting in line to get a three day job done. It sure looks nice now though!

Mine was also closed-up all summer. in the hot Florida sun.

The foam backing on mine has also disintegrated.

Nice quality materials, Formula!

Troutly......no fat chicks, just fat checks to repair!

Kev....I still can't believe how those seat brackets just broke like that. Formula needs to use better and stronger hardware. They really do.
