HEADLINER ADHESIVE Tensorgrip T65 High Temp Contact Spray Can Glue (500ml)
At Reece’s Auto Headlining Repairs, we have been using this product daily for years. We purchase it in bulk (20L canisters), and now we’re offering it in convenient 500ml cans for our customers.
For more information and tips on headlining adhesives and their application, visit our YouTube channel.
Coverage Test:
We’ve tested the coverage of 1 can, and it works out that for a small sedan, approximately 1.25 cans are required. Based on that, we recommend the following:
- 1 x 500ml Can = Ute or Sunroof
- 2 x 500ml Cans = Sedan
- 2-3 x 500ml Cans = Wagon
Consider extra cans for any pillars you may wish to treat.
Recommended Use:
We suggest using more adhesive than the manufacturer recommends. Our process for using this product on headliners is as follows:
Step-by-Step Guide:
- Clean the Headliner Board and remove all old glue and foam.
- Buy high-quality foam-backed headliner fabric – we sell this in our other listings.
- Spray adhesive twice on the headliner board, overlapping by 50% each time, then once more in high-stress areas.
- Spray adhesive twice on the back of the headliner fabric, overlapping by 50% each time.
- Apply the fabric to the board, feeding it around the curves/contours.
- Press down firmly on the fabric to ensure a good bond. We use offcuts of foam headliner for this.
Specialist Jobs:
For headliners with raised sections around front sunroof consoles (e.g. VW Tiguan), or for oily/tacky boards (e.g. AUDI), we recommend using 3M High Tac 76 or Permatex Headliner Adhesive in high-stress areas around the sunroof consoles. These adhesives are better suited to high-tack areas, as opposed to fast-tack adhesives.
