I don't know why it won't. I have this ugly cover on it now that looks like car head liner in it now which is rip in places and under neath is plywood varnished. Put still plywood

Re: Anyone put wood paneling on their ceilings
I said I have not seen it done not that you could not . If it was mine I would replace the head liner . But its yours so you can do it your way or anyway you please . You have to look at and like what you see , not me
( not a fan of paneling )

I used 1/8 Luan plywood on the ceiling of my F26. Painted white and used 1 1/2 battens on the seams. If you have a solid ceiling to attach it to contact cement might work well.

I had to repair a previous owner repair and used white oak sheets that I coated with epoxy on the back before installing. Then stained and varnished to match the other wood.

I have not, but I plan too. Mine has wood slats that I plan to screw and glue to.
