wallpaper bubbling and peeling

Ok,so I have some spots where the wallpaper is pulling away from the paneling not from water but from age and heat. We are not at a place to do major redo on the walls yet,so what can I do to get it to lay back down on the wall for a couple more years. Contact cement,wall paper glue??? Has anyone had luck doing this?? In a couple years we will be in a place to buy a new camper or do a remodel. Thanks

    Our 25 year old Shadow Cruiser had the same issue in a few spots. Glue injector good idea. Some of ours uncovered when remodeling and just stripped it off and covered areas with our remodel stuff. Far from perfectionists. Just be careful when stripping to not get paneling too!

    I had the same thing happen in my old RV. I've used Titebond wood glue with some success. I also used contact cement which I think was the best solution. If you have bubbles, put some Titebond into a glue injector, puncture the bubble with the injector and insert the glue. Here's a glue injector on Amazon:
