Headliner buckling

Post by cancow »

Have any of you dealt with the headliner buckling? I was thinking about puting some kind of backing on it to get it to stay flat. Any suggestions?

I tried to flatten mine by spraying warm water on the back, then trying to get it flat with weights. Made a little difference. I'll bet the perforated ones would respond better, then glue some thin,semi-rigid foam board to the back.
My friend had his heater core fail, filled the cab with hot humid coolant, warped his headliner in a day. He ended up having to buy a new one, it really transforms the interior! But, the shipping was about $100... :eek:
