  • How To Repair Car Interior Tear !!!

    Yesterday I noticed a small tear on the cloth on the inside roof of the car (where the T-tops come together). Does anybody know what I can use to stop the tear from opening more?
    Thanks.

          I dont believe that will not work very well considering the thin material the headliner is made out of.

              I also believe that the sewing advise isn't going to work for the reason already stated by Loochy88.
              Maybe some type of glue would do the job, I'm not sure.
              Any other ideas.

                  Seriously, try superglue?

                    superglue might work, in my brother old firebird it was sagging, really bad and we used super glue and it worked.didnt look 100% but we didnt try that hard.

                      Thanks. I guess I'll try it. Hopefully it'll work.

                        You might want to try some headliner adhesive... I got mine in a spray can but if I were in your situation with a small tear I'd simply spray some into a cap and probably apply it with a popsicle stick to the roof and then put the headliner back into place. If the headliner is sagging too much in other areas, I'd either reglue the entire thing outside of the car or have an upholstery shop reskin your headliner. Just a thought.
