interior mod help
So I'm starting to narrow down my decision for the fabrics for interior. Here's the problem.. I went to the auto upholstery place, and they told me that if the fabric is too thin, the adhesive will leak through the fabric. So my dilemma is the fabric i want is a cotton plaid, and way too thin. Anyone have any ideas how I can redo my headliner/a pillar/b pillar and the great area of the cargo area done?? Worst case scenario I can use an automotive fabric, but I really want to do the plaid... any help is greatly appreciated!!!

we already tried that.. I took a swatch of fabric, and the adhesive started soaking the fabric... it sucked!!! he showed me the backing on "automotive fabric" and it has a almost rubbery type backing.. I found some fabric but not the pattern. It just comes in plain colors.. so now I'm thinking a suede.. and it's really inexpensive...

Double layer with something thicker, tighter woven or more absorbent then another type of glue for that. Or even if the 1st layer soaks up enough so it wont really bleed through the fabric you want to use. Just a guess, I've actually been wanting to do that also.

THANKS!! I think I might try that.... The fabric store nearby actually has something called blackout, I just don't know how it's going to hold up in the long run.. The lady at the fabric store said fabric specific glue should hold up so we'll see...
