Headliner Fixed by dealer damn good but...
Ok guys, there was another thread I started about "$129 B service", well I paid about 78 dollars on oil change and tire rotation and they fixed the headliner damn good; 
I don’t think it’ll go anywhere now. I’ll attach pics @ bottom, but while they fixed that, I also got some grease fingerprints on the ceiling 
:sqntfawk: Enjoy the damn pics with grease….. fuck, I called the dealers and they said bring it back on Monday.
:'(
on first two pics, i'm holding the headliner down so i can show u the fix, dont think its not fixed.

Holy crap! The mess they made is ridiculous. Don't know what's worse, the fact that they did it or the fact that they didn't make an effort to clean it up. Unbelievable!

Any idea what kind of glue the dealer used? Did they seem to know about this problem right away?
I agree with joganjani - I'd rather not have to use the dealer. If my TL develops the dreaded headliner droop I'm going to fix it myself.
Hope those stains come out. Maybe you need a new headliner now.

Oh that is the last thing I wanted to see! My headliner is going in tomorrow. Fixed once by myself, held for a long time, but then the Velcro backing ripped apart - glue never let go tho. Figure I will let them fix it. I got news for them, if they do that to my headliner - they will REPLACE the headliner - do not accept cleaning of that - it will NEVER be right.
Oh man - I hope I am not posting pics like that next week.

It does not look any different than what was there - the repair I mean. Did they say they used stronger glue or did they just give you a new factory-style velcro - that will come down again in a couple weeks?

For the DIY'er
The product that is used on the headliner to fasten it is 3M Dual Lock. It comes in different sizes and two different adhesives, a general purpose type and very high bond acrylic.
I was able to order the 1" black VHB (SJ-3550) by the yard from here:
https://www.rjrsecure.com/cgi-bin/it...%3BDual%20Lock
I'm going to add some additional, and larger, patches of it along the back edge to reinforce what's there. So far, I only had one patch let go and was able to get it reattached and it's holding. Surface prep is the key to getting the stuff to bond properly.
