I have the opposite problem...whats the best way to put the cloth back? I like the cloth, but i can find a decent adhesive that will last longer than a couple of weeks.

some good ole fashioned 3m headliner adhesive after you clean the vinyl with a strong solvent like laquer thinner or acetone to get allllllll of the silicone and glue that may be on there off IPB Image

these are done with marine grade vinyl in the metalic blue places


trust me i worked for several years doing interior upholstry thats about the only way to get it to stick the vinyl over the years with all tha armorall and care products leave alot of trace silicone and waxes in the vinyl they have to be striped of all that before any glue will hold
