I have a older travel trailer and it has wallpaper. I like it, but with the moisture in the Winter it's starting to come off the wall along the seams. Any idea on how to fix it? I've never worked with wallpaper before 🙁

    You can reapply the wall paper glue ,with a small brush . Use a small wooden roller on the seam . Also a wet sponge to remove excess glue . Good luck .

    You can buy seam sealer glue and reglue the seams. I have also used Elmers white school glue. The wood roller helps, but I've used a credit card in a pinch.

    How about a little Mod Podge and a small brush along the seems? It dries clear.

    Best of luck.

    Get a dehumidifer for winter to keep the condensation down.

      I don't have the trailer connected up to electric all the time Only when I need to. But that is a great idea. I can connect it up and use the humidifier when it gets bad in there. Thank you

    First and for most STOP using the propane heater!!! That causes moisture inside our campers, trailers, fifth wheelers, and all. It causes not only the paper to peal off, but MOLD. YOU WILL NEED TO START with heating with an electric heater. Good luck. By the way I do speek after living in our lil camper for for 4 years. After the first year we too learned to only run the propane heater at the last resort.

      I have propane but it's forced air. I only use it to get the moisture out. I have one of those moisture thermometers. I know what you mean though. The first camper I had had a regular propane heater and it would make the inside hot and humid🙁
