Sure did, it's awesome stuff.... you can even spray the visors, it bonds to the vinyl and is stretchy... will never flake off.

Ah right on, it bonds very well whatever it is. I've had my interior done for over 2 years now, still looks very clean, scratch free, no chips, and best of all, looks very oem!

when you guys put the suede on the headliner, do you have to get rid of the original surface? or do you just apply 3m adhesive directly onto the original?

If you are talking about mine, it's not a repainted headliner. I do sunroofs and such at work, so we stock all sorts of headliner in all shades and textures. I just re-clothed mine in black...

Yep, industrial grade stuff. Comes in a huge drum and gets pumped out into our glue gun.... If I remember, I will look at the drum today to see who makes it...

Upper grade stuff directly to the headliner. Suede goes right over it.
