Anyone have experience with discoloration of the headliner on a 450? I am looking at a 450 and the overhead has a brownish discoloation that looks like the effect you might see from leakage, but it does not appear to be from that, it's not where moisture would collect and is quite widespread. I considered it might be age related, but where its a 99 and I have not seen it on others. I am looking at possibly painting the overhead, but wonder what types of paints would adhere and not try to peel over time. The boat is very clean and smells fresh without and mustiness.

I have a similar problem with my headliner and the upholstered wall covering on my 29.5. I haven't fixed it yet, but I have been researching a solution. I ran across an article on eHow.com, explaining how to using a textile medium added to latex paint. It looks very promising. I was concerned about having to go to a darker shade to cover the stains, so this looks like it would work. After seeing this one article, I found many others through a google-search.
