    I recommend wool over vinyl. Easier to install and a steam iron. works wonders on wrinkles. Just be very careful that the glue doesn't soak thru and show. You have to let it tack up before letting the liner touch it. Timing is everything. Practice on some scrap.

    Whoever installed our wool headliner obviously didn't know this trick as we have some areas where it soaked thru. Any suggestions to clean it up after the fact. Other than pull it out and start over.

    I started with the speaker board and that is where I learned quickly. Was not able to fix it with any solvents I tried. I used Airtex's glue. I hid my mistake with a alu panel covered with wool.

    Dont know that it will work but, Many years ago I fixed machines at a shirt factory, whenever the girls would get grease or something on a shirt they would spray it out with contact cleaner, worked like a charm. Could be worth a try..

    An old time uphostery shop guy told me the only thing that will remove that glue is 100LL. It worked for me but you have to get it pretty quick.
