Headliner Replacement Question

I pulled the headliner out this evening to work on replacing it. When i took the old liner material off the fiberboard it looks like there is some type of heavy paper layer between the fiber and the liner material. Some of the paper stayed attached to the fiber but some large sections separated and left the fiber layer exposed.

Can I glue up the new headliner material direct to the fiber as well as the paper layer?

TIA
Steve

Re: Headliner Replacement Question

Use a brush to remove any paper or foam material from the fiberglass liner and then get new material and some "Weldwood" contact cement adhesive. I also purchased a cheapo paint gun from Walmart automotive and set it to spray the glue onto both sets of material and then set the material to the headliner.
