The problem is ordinary wallpaper adhesive is designed to work with
porous surfaces - plaster and paper. It needs air to dry. Plastics in
general ain't porous. This is why ordinary wallpaper adhesive doesn't
work for overlaps with vinyl paper - as one surface isn't porous. It
seems to work when you first paste it - but after a few days when
things dry out the overlap will separate.

Well, Dave, the job's now done! And it looks great!

Used a very thick gucky mixture of Everbuild wallpaper paste, really
gave it a good mixing and brushed it on the paper really hard. It's
been up a couple of hours and hasn't slid of any of the panels yet.
Question is: in a week's time when the paste has thoroughly dried out
will their be any bond between glass and paper! Will the paper have
curled off, or be so lightly held on that the least disturbance causes
it to start to come away!

My experience of using paste on a non porous surface is it works at first
while it remains tacky - then looses grip. Could take a while, though.
Good luck.

Will update this group as to the result!
