the fabric lining my jeep's ceiling is missing in the front of my car. came down in bits and pieces and i wasn't able to reattach it. there's a material underneath that looks something like yellow fiberglass??? is that right? is it safe to be exposed to this? i don't use the car much so i haven't had it fixed yet but i'd like to know what i'm dealing with here. thanks for any help!

  1. your board is probably fiberglass but the material your seeing will be the old foam rotting away,you have to remove the entire board and clean it and get a new piece back up ,when new that came with a 1/4 inch foam backed material but over the years it deteriorates and falls down ,that's the only way to repair it right and make it look good,the new material cost about 12 bucks a yard and is about 54 inches wide so you,ll need about 3 yards at least to do this with and at least 3 cans of glue,glue both sides ,the board side and the material side then bond them together,and reinstall it and your done,this will cost you about 50 bucks to do this one,good luck.


  2. It might be fiberglass. Don't eat it! You don't need to handle it anyway. It's called a headliner by the way.  

  3. its not fiberglass, its a hard resin foam. Will do no harm, unless you chew it up and swallow it or snort it... But being exposed to it is not bad for your health..
