COMMAND Hooks On Walls
I was going to mount a Command Hook on my paneling wall but the instructions say "Do Not intall on wallpaper". I did a search to find discussions but only a few said they have used them on the actual...

The Command hooks are going to work only as good as the surface it's attached to. If the wall paper is installed shoddy, not a good glue, the Command hook will adhere to the wall paper, but the wall paper will give way from the wall. You never know until you try.... case in point:
My Keystone Camper had Command hooks ALL OVER the place for 8 years and not a single one of them failed, nor the wall paper.
Now, in my stick-built house? I remodeled the bathroom. Took the room clear down to studs, new insulation, vapor barrier, dry wall, mud, primer paint and paint. Wanted to hang a simple plastic (not heavy at all) clock on the wall. Used a Command hook. It held just fine for about 6 months and then all of a sudden the clock fell. The Command hook was still attached to the paint, but the PAINT separated from the wall. I ended up just using a nail after that!
So, you just never know. Try and see what happens!
