X3 more samples arrived today time to make a decision shortly. Also going to be testing different spray glues iv always used the stuff supplied from martrim but its instant fix no time to reposition if needed.

So the 1st lot of samples are here time to share
These are the standard creme type with the one on the right being the nearest match
These blues are nice the navy blue on the left looks better in real life and is a good match for my baltic blue car and matches the door cards.
This didn't come out very good on camera but is a saude navy blue again a good match for the baltic blue car but has no backing ie foam. It can be glue direct onto the headliner or as I prefer 2/3mm foam first then this over laid.
This one is a perforated vinyl colour says off white but looks like a very nice creme, again no backing it can be glued direct to the headliner or over laid on 2/3 mm foam. Still waiting on the last 2 samples. I do have some raf blue velour sitting here as well but iv discounted this as the wife said it looked like her mums old curtains from the 70s |

The new type spray glue arrive so iv stuck the samples down on to some fabric. Its reposionable so iv lifted it after a few minutes and put it back down again. Gonna see how strong it is in the morning.

I have a few more glues on the way so will report back. I found some old new headliner in the garage from my p38 when I redid the headliner in that so lots to use in my r and d. |

Martrim supply there own spray glue, basically it's just a standard spray glue rebranded with there own logo and directions. Iv redone a couple of p38s will look for some pics and post up. Results were great the liner is still up as iv still got the car. I redid the wifes old D2 as well while I had the liner down fixing the usual sunroof leaks and seized motors.

Sorry there hasn't been an update on this yet still a work in progress. Iv tried several glues on some spare headliner material I had left over from my p38 refurb. So far the pva is the easiest to use, its holding up ok and of course isnt instant grab so lots of chances to reposition the liner material.
