Default Headliner Glue

So i have been thinking abut doing my headliner and pillars. I have done some searches and it seems there is a bit of a debate over what kind of glue to use.

My situation is this, I MUST use rattle can glue as i donot have a spray gun.

So for thouse of you who have done this with a rattle can what gule worked the best? and has your headliner started to sag at all?

Thanks

Adam

3M 90. in a green can. can get it at Home Depot etc, about $13 a can, you will need about 3 cans.
no sagging at all.

Yeah, use 3M 90... not the 3M 77...
the 90 will hold up much better

When you guys do the headliner is the A pillar cover a pain to get off. My gf had a tc and they had some special clips for the side air bags that were a pain to get off. Any other tips would be great since I'm thinking of doing mine also

very easy to get off, just pull on them with a little pressure, there is only two clips holding it in, you may also want to remove the speaker cover to make it a little easier.
