i have a conservatory on the back of the house which has a 2ft wall around it - insulated, it was built two years ago. On one wall there is a long double radiator and behind this it is wallpapered with a standard vinyl wallpaper stuck down with solvite adhesive.

The two pieces of wallpaper at either end of the radiator have no problem, but the one piece in the middle is forever crinkling up and coming off

Does anyone have any suggestions apart from evostick!

The border adhesive should work. Just one question...do you hang wet washing on the rad, because that is one of the main reasons for paper coming away behind them?

Not over the radiator but 'she who must be obeyed' has a clothes horse that she sometimes stands in front of the radiator

I usually use neat PVA on the wallpaper behind a rad....it tends to stay stuck!
