I suggest you be very careful, if you rub to hard or get it to wet w/ the cleaner the glue will not stick and your headliner will start to fall. I would take it to a pro and have them clean it.

My headliner is sagging in the back, I tried to use 3M spray but it dried and came right back down. Sucks!

Re: gahhhh! headliner is dirty what do you recomend?

you may need to use the 3M foam adhesive if youre bonding stuff to foam. idk, mines dirty too but i was never able to clean it. it just started looking worse so i left it.

Re: gahhhh! headliner is dirty what do you recomend?

i use this for my carpets and also used it a couple times for headliners, you can pick it up at any auto store like Advance or AutoZone:



just spray that on, let it sit for a minute or two, then spray it again and use a damp cloth to gentle rub it.

Re: gahhhh! headliner is dirty what do you recomend?

Baby or hand wipes work really well on the plastic parts.

If your headliner is sagging, you can use contact cement spray adhesive. Spray and wait a few minutes before bonding the headliner.
