I owe Ben Simons for this tip, but it does look great. My spray glue failed so I need to pull it and use another adhesive. :study

I liked this fabric, and placed my order. What did you guys use to glue it to?
Fiberboard or Dynamat or Hushmat or something else?
Thanks

Do you happen to know the measurements of the headliner? I wasn’t sure which size to buy. They have 2
Sizes.
32x48 and oversized
39x65. I’m leaning towards the biggest and trim it
Thanks for the good answers

I ordered the 32 x 48 fiberboard and I measured the opening then created a cardboard template and it measures 42.5 long x28.5 wide.
If I put a bend in it to Match the roof contour it will add a little more on the width.
There is a video on YouTube to show how to put a bow on a headliner fiberboard. Use
9 parts ammonia 1 part water and spray to soften the board. Use a spray bottle to apply.
