Anyone ever dye their headliner?

[Addicted2fishing]

Due to the leaks my truck experienced in the first couple years it stained my headliner and despite the dealer sending my truck for “cleaning” it didn’t do squat.

I got to thinkin.... could I use a fabric dye on the headliner ? I would have to do it while the headliner is in the truck as I can’t remover it.

IMO all headliners should be black. Having light coloured ones is just plain sllly. They get gross even with me being a clean freak [emoji2369].

i did a headliner spray on vinyl dye on a vw van two years ago...the end result was great, but the fumes and overspray was intense..may have a better result and live longer if you remove the headliner first...of course, at that point it may make more sense to just recover it

Lol. Thanks! I was hoping for maybe a roll on thing but looks like I’ll be stuck with a stained beige liner.....

I would look for a wrecked truck and pull liner out of that. Bit of work, but better than seeing stain every day.

Nice! But in the republic of Canada probably $4000. I’ll call a few places. That’s a great idea !

Can order the material and recover it yourself. Maybe upgrade the material at the same time.https://www.ramforum.com/threads/suede-headliner.117008/
