Had my front sunroof fixed at dealers when leaks appeared.
Now no leaks but headlining has sagged behind front seats, in two distinct areas.
Dealer says will try another adhesive.
What is best to use without disfiguring the fabric.

Good question not a lot as the fabric is so thin.

As above, it's the foam backing that detirioates not the glue. Most spray adhesives work short term but really it's time to replace or strip compleatly and spray paint.

Just what I did, stripped old fabric off then spray painted...now hassle free!

I bought the original fabric and refitted using 3m super 74. Not a difficult job to remove the board, but not easy to obtain a smooth fit. A slower drying adhesive could be a better bet.

I recovered mine in black Veltrim. Looks good.
