How to Fix a Sagging RV Headliner
Dave SolbergDescription
After discussing the common causes of a headliner that’s developed a soft spot, Dave introduces a couple techniques you can utilize to fix the problem. If you’re tired of the fabric and just want to swap it out for a new material, you could go the wallboard route, but be aware of the drawbacks this entails. If you do prefer the fabric look, Dave shows you how to either strip and replace the current fabric or cut and repair it where the sag has occurred.
Should you choose the latter option, you’ll want to strip wet or worn adhesive and apply a new coat, and then pull the fabric taut to all four walls before sealing it up for good. With Dave’s help, you’ll have that sagging RV headliner tightened up and looking like new in no time!

What are the down sides of frp? Our entire ceiling in Winnebago vectra drooping.
We have removed the old headliner and now looking to replace it. Trying to figure out if fabric is better than foam backed liner. also there is a white backing that the liner was glued too attached to ceiling. is your recommendation to place pressure like mentioned in video to ensure glue sticks?
What can I do if I had a leak ? Wouldn’t I need to take the board like in your demonstration out and if so what do I replace it with?
