Hi everyone, i am after some advice. I really want to spruce up my headlining. Has anyone had a go at DIY?? or is it best to find a company?? if so any recommendations?? I have some material that i could cover the roof interior with but need glue?? have read that starch is the best way?? Any help or guidance would be appreciated, thanks guys
The misuses used soapy water on mine...in the cab area, there was n't any in the back so i brought some new stuff.
So you have two options: 1 Clean what you have already What is your headlining made of - is it material, wood, formica etc? Most household products work well, just be careful with anything that bleaches or has acids in it. 2 Cover it with new material Again, what the original and what are you wanting to stick to it? Contact adhesives work well, as do some carpet glues but be careful, some react with certain materials. Sorry if that isn't a great answer - need a bit more info buddy! Incidentally - I wouldn't use a company to do either - save your pennies.
Thanks for the info. I really want to have a go my self, makes it feel more special. The front has the perforated roof lining (vinyl??) where as the back is a cotton like material covering the boards.... Hope that helps... here some pics :-
Nowt wrong with that. Clean it up. The absolute miracle cleaner for vinyl, I'm led to believe, is cheapy pound shop oven cleaner. I've seen the results on seats you'd have thought should be binned and it's astounding.
Thanks Zed i will give it a try.... Have a little time soon as home for a bit to do some real camper renovations... Pics to follow
