Paneling replacement.

We had water damage to our TT, leaking window, and now need to replace the interior paneling. What is the best paneling to use. We tried a Plas-Tex adhering it with liquid nails and it would not hold. So new paneling is in order. Will only take 2 sheets, with left overs, but the dilemma is what product do we us for such a replacement. Thank you for an advice for two very unhandy people.

    Are you trying to attach interior panels over existing ones, or replace the wallpaper only? Or is your (damaged) panel a laminate similar to countertop, i.e. there is no coat that looks like paper?

    Though, in either scenario you could try wall panel adhesive.
  • Getting something to adhere to the existing paneling is difficult.
    The plastic like material is very slick. I did a remodel for someone a while back and used acetone to break the sheen of the existing material than used adhesive for FRP panels which worked out well. You can use pretty much any paneling you want if your can get it to stick.

    We used to have a Titanium so I know what your dealing with.
