Hello William,

Thanks for finally finding a reason to write in, just wish is was under better circumstances. I'm sorry you're having to deal with water damage. That's never a fun repair, but this is a great product to help put everything back together.

Yes, the Revive Peel-and-Stick RV Wallpaper Kit - 200 sq. ft. - 100' x 2' Roll - Sketch Linen # GR38FR will work great on new plywood as long as the surface is smooth, clean, dry, and free of dust before installation. One roll measures 100' long by 2' wide and will cover up to 200 square feet, which is enough to complete a good-sized repair or refresh several walls, depending on your layout.

I've actually had a chance to play around with the Revive wallpaper myself, and I came away really impressed. It's much thicker than typical peel-and-stick wallpaper, so it does an excellent job hiding small blemishes, seams, and other minor imperfections. Another thing I really like is that you can lift it back up and reposition it while you're installing it. Since the adhesive doesn't fully cure right away, you have time to make adjustments before pressing it down for good, which makes the installation much more forgiving.

Take your time getting the plywood prepped, then peel the backing away a little at a time as you smooth the wallpaper onto the wall. Working slowly like this will help you avoid wrinkles and make it easier to get a clean, professional-looking finish.

Getting things fixed up for the next great adventure, where are you headed to next?
