          • wicked jobbie! quick question, what sort of adhesive do you use?! Will it withstand the temperatures?

            Comment


            • It's the same product Aaron (The Hawk) used on his headliner a while ago... orange can with blue lid. $22.99 from Autobarn - the most expensive spray adhesive in these auto shops but a good one at that. Works really well when applied with heat too (used his hairdryer... ha!). It's actually meant for headliners so I'd think it should withstand a good amount of Aussie summer heat. Oh, and we had a little left over from just using one can on the whole headliner, and we weren't being stingy with it either.

              Cheapo contact spray adhesive was then used to get the fabric on the pillar while hot glue was applied to hold the edges.
