Have a 2001 living quarters horse trailer...the ceiling ( head liner ) is starting to sag in places. A few areas that are 9-12 square inches. Is there a way to get these areas back up where they belong? Don't want the weight of these areas to create more sagging. There has to be a way to do this without pulling the whole thing down and starting over?Thank you

Depending upon the material, a small slit can be created with a razor knife, and 3m spray adhesive can be inserted using a small diameter tube in the spray head. Support the effected area and usually the glue will hold in a few minutes. If it's fabric, the sagging area may have stretched a bit and it's difficult to eliminate all the wrinkles. If it's a rigid covering, a small diameter drill bit can be utilized to penetrate the surface. If there are many delaminations, it's better to remove the liner and start over.
