I also need to replace the fabric on the sun visors (2). Can you use this material and process to repair visors as well as the headliner? Thanks!

i imagine you can but there isn't a way to cover the leftover fabric. the headliner excess goes under the board, the visors have no place to hide that.

similar but this will make fenders black again that have sun damage. I use both..

I tried it on my sun visors which are a similar material to carpet, but not exactly. While the rustolium is supposed to work, i found that the duplicolor fabric and vinyl worked much better on the visors because it was a bit thinner and absorbed better in the fabric. With the duplicolor The fabric is still more or less the same texture afterward. The rustoleum however gooped up on the fabric because it was thicker and did not penetrate it and looked bad and was not the same texture but now a hard feeling with globs here and there. I ended up deciding on a lighter color grey so went to junk yard to get another set of sun visors and I painted them only with the duplicolor. They cam out the best. So I suggest the duplicolor for all cloth fabrics and rugs and the rustoleum for vinyl and plastic only.

That's a hard one to answer. I've played around with the "slippery-bendy" type plastic that they use for things like ATV fenders and recycling bins and that is probably not the type of plastic that this would repair. I would look for some kind of plastic repair kit or plastic "welding" kit that involves a hot iron for that repair. I used the fiberglass repair kit on an old Jeep CJ-7 hard-top and it worked better than I could have imagined. After the patch cured, I sanded the edges smooth and painted it. No leaks and it takes the vibrations fine. Sorry that I couldn't be more direct with the answer for you. Good luck. That's a hard one to answer.

We bought this barrier roughly a year ago and could not be happier with it. I personally went the route of drilling new holes to make the barrier fit. That way if you want to resell it you can fasten the feet to the factory holes. The barrier fits snug, but from what i can tell has not done any damage to the headliner. I had similar concerns. Hope this helps!

why not on your sun visor. Try it first with rubber bands to see if it will work.

Hey Kristin! I am sure it wouldn't hurt the leather; if anything for re sale it would protect the leather from the sun. I think mine is vinyl. I have a 2007 Grand Cherokee. The diameter is bigger but after some time past you will have gotten used to it and not even notice. I travel from PA to VA all the time and its a huge difference on my hands from gripping the steering wheel plus it looks cool and is so soft. When this one gets old I will be getting another. Just buy it already:) Brian

I have to inform you outright that I am not knowledgeable about fabrics. Having said that, it is a combination of "suede-like" or flocked material. If I were to choose what material I would use in making it, I think this is it. After each use, I would brush it with the cloth lint brusher to make it look like new again. I understand they came up with a protective sleeve that you can wash. So far, I have not found the need for that yet.

No, This stuff hardens like a rock , you'll spend eternity trying to sand it . Besideds the dash material and tis stuff are no where similar in texture .. the heat in the sun will crack the two again from each other in no time ........They make vinyl repair dash kists you cant try , ut the best solution its tojust put a pre made dash pad from a car catalog or a complet dash replacement . I restore cars , thats the best answer itf its a collectible or valuable car .......

Well, you can! But it gonna look like its missing a part, and will not look good at all. But if you are thinking about removing it and putting another shade, yes you can!

I would use the specially formulated paint products for rust repair. Unless you just want to experiment? If so, good luck, let us know how it goes? When I repair rust on my car it is so much work I would never use a product made for a completely different purpose. But hey, if it's an art car or something? Have at it.

i think you would be ok, but i would recommend darker and thicker tint for a visor depending on what you want. also recommend precut if available for your vehicles visor.

I can understand your problem, but it is fairly simple to install. The part that attaches to the sunvisor will expand or detract to fit over the sunvisor. fit it over the sunvisor where the color visors are closest to windshield. slide the part over the visor to where it is tight. and you are done. You can fold down the dark one for sunshine or the yellow one for nite driving. Hope this will help you. I couldn't read instructions either.

I never used the product to clean the headliner. Maybe try a small area first and see, I would think ? it would work.

Leo, I put my decal on crooked and my husband was able to straighten it. That being said, my decal has withstood this, as well as, the weather elements and car washes, quite well. Enjoy!!!

I think you can just purchase the cover however I would call the manufacturer to be sure. If the damage is not too severe you may be able to patch the cover with clear postal tape. I repaired mine this way as the sun does dry out the plastic. Good Luck!

it doesn't have a stretch to it. you don't want it to... use a good spray upholstery glue and you can use clear screw in upholstery pins...WalMart had the pins. it's a really nice headline fabric.. scrap well your original, then spray with glue and lightly press fabric on.. let it dry at least overnight...I used extra for visors and bottom inside on doors..Good Luck... can see how to ideas on YouTube..
