Why does everyone spray their hoodlining? Why not trim it?

Spraying is easy, cheap and people who have trimmed it have had issues with sticking, Plus its harder to make it look nice IMO.

Don't use spray adhesive, used it on mine and it sagged like a motherfucker after about a month! I'd use brushable stuff

I used Selley's Quik Grip Gel. Im not sure if you can get that over there, but im sure you have an alternative. Also, if what you mean by leatherette is vinyl, i wouldnt recommend it as its heavy and may make the ceiling board sag
