actually, if you get the right kind, and know the process, the tack spray works fine...

Used the spray on my daughters car and it worked just fine. Hard part was removing the foam from the backing.

use super 77 from 3m to tack the cloth back up and some CA glue to glue the edges on the backside ... hot glue may seperate when the climate changes

be careful how much glue you spray ... if to thick it will bleed through

If you haven't got good results, you aren't using the right product. Most high temp spray adhesives will work fine, and something that will spray in a web instead of a fine mist is best. You can get headliner and upholstery adhesive in a spray can, which is the best stuff to use (obviously) but isn't that easy to find.

This is the stuff that I've had success with

You can find it in many stores, usually in the craft section.

That's the good stuff, I used to use that for all the car audio carpeting and vinyl work I used to do. Nice green stringy snot.

It doesn't, however, make up for the fact that you have the ugliest interior I have ever seen.
