Inside of my 1991 chevy S10 truck the felt headliner is falling down... Pealing away from the insulation... Anybody know a good way to reattach it to the insulation?... I was thinking of a spray glue or something...

Umm my caddy has the same problem (it's a gm problem) what you do is to take the whole headline out and carefully pull the fabric away and then clean the cardboard back and then reuse the carpet (if it's in good shape) or get new carpet and glue it on with a spray glue like 3m spray adhesive. (or any type of contact cement). Also what you can do that i have seen is you put foam under it and cut out let's say a flame pattern and then put the cloth on it and you'll have an emboss of flames...looks really cool.

Spray glue is good and it that doesn't work, plus it is messy you could use like a weather-stripping glue
