Nick,
Can't help on the screen- but my understanding on the headliner is that the foam starts to degrade- and that's what's the cause of the glue not sticking anymore. It's a tough job to re glue. If it were me- I'd take it to a professional and use alcantara. It would come out sweeet.  

Just my opinion of course. :)
