dont use anything but 3m super trim adhesive or there is one other thing that i forgot it comes in a 5 gallon container and is sprayed through a spray gun....All those other glues will not hold up to the summer heat. I wrapped my arm rest with one of those crappy glues and it came undone in a couple of weeks because of the heat. im going to rewrap my whole interior using the 3 m super trim adhesive and i have kinka like a vinyl material also

i used the 3m super 90 adhesive. it hasn't been too hot yet so i can't tell you how it holds up in the heat. i know a lot of guys here have used it and haven't had any problems :up:

yeah, I used 3M 90 for my headliner with suede. Been on for quite awhile now, I don't think I would even be able to take it off.

I used the 3M Super 77 on my xD pillars. It did work pretty good for awhile but it looks like spots are starting to come loose as the weather is now getting warmer. I would try to find something a little stronger.

I used the 3M stuff for my door panel inserts, but it wasn't strong enough to hold the material when the temps changed. I had really good luck using some stuff called Sobo. It is in a tube and can be found in the craft department at Wal-Mart. I squeezed it on the panel, then used a foam brush to spread it around. The stuff holds strong, but is somewhat flexible so temp changes don't really affect its hold on the material. I highly recommend it. :up:

usually if you go to a toytoa dealer they can get you the stuff they used to attech material to the door inserts.... its prolly the same thing as tony is using but thats what i used.... just squirt it on and spread it.....works great....and 3m adhesive works well with micro suedes but not vynls do to the fact that the sueade can be manipulated more easily and the vinyl does not want to change shape.....so if youre using suede use the 3m just remember to spry both surfaces and let them get tacky before you try to adhere them together.... i have had no problems with my headliner and this is how i did mine wiht the 3m stuff..... but doors use the spreadable stuff less mess

thanks guys ill try to find some of the products out here. definately need something that holds up to heat and humidity. out here its on average 95* during the day and 80* at night with damn near 100% humidity. lol breathing sucks out here. fightinsk8ers are you talking about DAP? if you are, i have used that once before and its awesome, but its regulated and they wont ship it on a plane so i cant get my hands on it. lol.

dont use anything less than 3M 90 on anything. :up:

i used FastTack 92 on my headliner and hatch. no problems for months so far, and it gets crazy hot here in AZ.

I use contact cement and spray it through a spray gun. You can get it at Home Depot/Lowes in a gallon container made by DAP.
