BUT the adhesive backed frost king would NOT stick well to my roof so I used 3M headliner spray adhesive on both the frost king and the roof then installed. The 3M product I used was a heavy duty headliner product that was yelow and took 15 minutes to set up properly before attaching.You had to do this outside the fumes were awful. My old boss used this stuff to install vinyl tops if I remember correctly.
Hope this answers your questions,

Since you mentioned it....about your boss and the headliners. This project is gonna require a headline redo for me. Like you apparently now do I once worked in an auto upholstery shop way W-A-Y back when. I already need to get some of that glue for the headliner part of this project.
It sure sounds like you are using the same stuff I remember. If I recall correctly we brushed it on...one of those small brushes that are part of the lid of the can. Same as you say you did we applied it to both mating surfaces. The stuff went on the headliner and to the area that the headliner was gonna be stuck to. wait a few minutes and get to work fitting the headliner. The stuff was kinda gell like...sorta like the "slime" on Ghost Busters. It had a fair "working time" where you could move things around to get wrinkles out..tighten up corners ect. ect. ect. 3M makes some spray on stuff these days. The product I worked with back in the shop way back in the dark ages was much better for headliner work than anything I have ever seen come out of today's spray cans.
Can you possibly get me a Manufacturer name and a product number?
