Head lining

Post by lencot76 »

I need to replace the headlining,it is quite marked with mould marks,I havn`t tried to clean it yet,but I have never been very succesful in the past.Is there a good spares place to get one from.ALso I read all the hooror stories about removing a rear wing,about the bolts being siezed,so I cut most of the rotten wing off to get to the bolts easier.They were not too tight and after a couple of turns,it was almost possible,to unscrew them by hand.So some relief there.I had more trouble removing the doors,I had to get my Oxy Acet.on the bolts.

Try some vinyl silk emulsion and a small roller, worked for me in the past :)

I used these, they are very good. Dont forget to do it in the warm and put a fan heater in the car, it makes it a lot easier. :lol:
