What glue to use when installing peel and stick vinyl on walls?
I am installing peel and stick vinyl planks in my closet wall and even though I have followed the instructions, some of the pieces refuse to stick. What additional glue (medium) should I use to secure the planks to the wall?

You could try a construction adhesive - Liquid Nails.
Something like gorilla glue should do it.
I would be very careful using any additional adhesive and the two may not be compatible. The problem may be not having enough pressure placed on the tiles during installation. Can you rig a "wedge" to provide additional pressure to the tiles not adhering well?
You should prime the walls before applying the tiles. This creates a sealer coat for the tiles to stick. Regular paint tends to be chalky and foils the adhesive. You can use any construction adhesive like Liquid Nails or Locktite Powergrab.

I'm not sure what kind it is, but the best is the vinyl adhesive that you apply and wait until it is tacky to lay the vinyl.
Maybe there is something on your walls making them not stick?
