From memory it was the orange can
I've used that orange can before as well.
It didn't work particularly well for me with the foam.....drooped again in places after a year or so.
The second time I glued vinyl directly to the board without any foam using the same orange can. Much better result.

I took my roof lining to a (expensive) pro and got him to do it. Then slid the roof lining back in while the rear windscreen was out.
Why? Because the roof lining is a prick to get out a door without over bending it, and I don't ever want to have to do that job again.
Just my 2c

Okay so I've finished it.
I used the Selley Kwik Grip on the front, applied wet on just the cardboard and straight away put down, seemed to be the best method for me.
And for the rear, I got a can of that Permatex stuff, I didn't like it thought, came out very stringy and was a mess.
I also bought some VZ Calais trim to go with the black roof.
