Apply adhesive to the framing in a wavy pattern.
How do you install plaster panels on wall.
Brush on pva glue to prepare the wall to hold the plaster.
For best results the plaster should be applied while the pva coat is tacky but not completely dry.
Drive four finishing nails through the top edge of the panel.
Combine one part pva glue with four parts water in a disposable paint tray and mix thoroughly.
Press all over the surface to assure glue transfer to the wall.
Use masonry screws and a drill to apply one screw every 18 inches on top of the stud.
Masonry screws work best on plaster regular panel nails will not be able to penetrate the plaster.
If your paneling is tongue and groove place the groove.
Position the panel on the wall leaving a 1 4 inch space at the bottom and drive the four nails partway into the wall.
Press the panel back to the wall and it should hold very firmly.
If the walls have no studs apply a panel adhesive to the back of the beadboard and to the wall.
Cut each sheet 1 4 inch shorter than the distance from the floor to the ceiling.
Allow a 1 8 inch expansion gap in the corner.
Roll or brush the pva over the entire wall aiming for total coverage.
Press each panel firmly into place.
Trim to fit step 5.
Then pull the panel away from the wall for about a minute to allow the glue to develop tackiness.
The typical method of installation is to press the panel to the wall using your hand or a towel.
