Headliner come-apart, need to fix

Has anyone had an issue with their headliner separating form the sunroof trim area. Mine is bad, and near the sunvisors too.

I bought some 3M spary adhesive (light fabric style)

Anyone done this before, and have any tips, tricks, or advice. I want it to look decent, but as long as it looks better I will be fine with it.

I've heard it doesn't work because the material you are gluing it to is too degraded. The cost to have it fixed professionally near me is $100.

fixed

fixed it with the 3M general adhesive. I can go on wet if you use too much, but it can not be sticky enough if you don't use enough.

Spent about an hour working around the sunroof, and sunvisors areas.

So far so good. Looks good, and just over saturated a few spots.

$10 a can. Let's see how it holds up in FL sun....
