Headliner Restoration

[DealerDetailer]

I finally got around to restorting my 9 year old headliner. It was long over due from the day I bought it 5 years ago. I then had purchased it from a couple who where "light":laughing: smokers .

Process...
1) Poorboy's World Bio-Degradable APC - Diluted 15-1 and 10-1 for tougher spots.
2) Section sprayed with APC
3) Scrubbed with toothbrush
4) MF used to "damp" remove loosened dirt.
5) Re-sprayed with APC
6) Quick surface brushing with toothbrush
7) Vacuumed

I'm surprised the headliner actually stayed intact after all that. They are usually pretty fragile. Came out really good! rops:

Looks Great!! I've had luck using a similar process process. The key is to not oversaturate and if possible remove headliner from vehicle!

Nice job on the headliner!! I find the Poorboy's World APC&D to work very well on interior fabrics. I think PB-APC&D is a much overlooked asset to the effective cleaning of interiors.

Wow what a restoration.

Those photos made it look easy but I bet it wasn't.

Nice :dblthumb2:

Thanks! The hardest part was getting it out of the car. Took just about an hour I think, but after that it was smooth sailing and just patience while cleaning.

I have found PBs Bio APC to be one of the best all around APCs I have used! Great for cars and cleaning the house!

I was worred also, but the big headliner seemed to be very well glued and built. The sunroof liner was much more delicate around its edges - more so because some of the fabric had begun to peel away. I simple used some interior 3M trim glue after the cleaning to re-glue it, perfect now.
