When I got the car the door insides were filthy so I gave them a good scrub. Looked good.

But soon the fabric lifted in bubbles, may have shrunk a bit.

What would be ideal would be a glue aerosol I could shoot through the fabric, wait a minute and glue down. Don't really want to call Stanley out.

Anyone done this? Recommendations?

The problem with using any adhesive is that its likely to stain the fabric. The only way you can guarantee not to is by detaching the fabric completely from one edge and putting a light coat of aerosol adhesive on to the card.

Great idea, thanks. The bubbles are about six inches away from the door edges though, so I might just leave it for now, and let it get worse, as I might make it worse whatever I do.
