anyone kno how to wrap a headliner with suede??

 

Remove the headliner, and tear off the original cloth (which may be an adventure in itself), then use quality carpet/headliner glue (3M) and a razor knife to pie cut curves and angles. The razor knife part is really where experience comes in...Good luck, seriously...

 

Old headliner, use a small putty knife to remove old foam. New headliner, use your fingers to rub off the foam. Get a friend or many friends to help get the foam off because it will wear out your fingers. If the original liner is in really good shape you might put the new material on top but you're taking a chance on having to redo your job later.

 

so it is not as easy of just using the headliner glue and putting new suede ontop of the origional headliner??

 

The glue may break down the adhesive used on the original material. It may work fine, maybe not. Try it and let us know.

 

that hardest part is strecthing the material tight enough other then that everything everyone else said is right

 

do i have to put foam inbetween the suede and headliner. my truck is a 2006 so the headliner is almost brand new. should i or should i not remove the material that is on it now??

 

you can just apply the suede over your old headliner just make sure to coat it nice in glue, and when you wrap to the other side staples work.

 

any good online places to get suede big enough to cover a headliner

 

go to your local upolstry shop and ask for just the suede, or any fabric store.

 

I've thought about doing this too. Take some pic's along the way and let us know when you get it done! Good luck! *waiting*
