Re: Interior Stuff
I agree with everything that has been said and I will add a few
things. You must include a vapor barrier so that vapor(steam can not
form behind the panelling in the framework and then drip to the
bottom and over time rot the base woodwork. On a boat I love using
some type of clear wood moulding parallel to the floor since it
provides airflow behind bulkheads on a boat other wise I place small
plated steel screens over holes in the panelling between studs at the
bottom of the panelling. Vapor or steam rises and condenses at the
top of the wall or ceiling and runs down. Venting panelling with a
vapor barrier seems a contradiction but it prevents rot where it
would start.
Always glue panelling and if you don't use a very dark vapor barrier
then take a dark wide flow pen and mark the studs where the panelling
will join together. since most wood for framing is light and most
panelling is darker so an inadvertent opening will stand out unless
you make the wood behind the panelling darker.
Vent panelling on boats to prevent rot with plated steel mesh to
also prevent rodent infestation. Mark the studs darker to make the
panelling not stand out. Always use vapor barriers to not allow
moisture to form on the ceiling and upper walls. That is the way I
was taught to prevent interior rot in a boat. I don't know if anyone
else does it but in boats I have been involved with there has not
been rot. Steel and aluminum have different ways of dealing with the
condensation problem.

Ken,
Think bathroom. I would use the basic proscdures in putting up
panelling in a bathroom, that is seal the back side of the panelling
well before putting it up. I have used several coats of Thompsons
water seal on the back side of panelling, and on the mating surface.
None that I know of have "delaminated".
I use panel glue in houses.

water seal on the back side of panelling, and on the mating surface.
None that I know of have "delaminated".
I use panel glue in houses.

Ken,
If the walls are not too curved, use brads colored to match the
paneling, and put the along the seams. Most paneling has seams on 16
inch centers and narrower to match regular house framing. A line of
construction adhesive along the frame will make things much stronger.

Can anyone pass some hints on attaching interior paneling say oak, to wall
framing if I'm not painting. What kind of screws or nails do you use? What
if I don't want them to be seen? Books?
Thanks,
