Can I attach vinyl beadboard to bathroom walls with adhesive like Liquid Nails?

The bathroom walls have been primed with a waterproofed sealant.Can I attach vinyl beadboard to bathroom walls with adhesive like Liquid Nails?
LIQUID NAILS WORKS GREAT IN THAT APPLICATION.I'VE USED IT B-4 AND NEVER HAD IT COME LOOSE. FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS. YOU NEED TO GLUE IT AND REMOVE IT FAR ENOUGH TO LET AIR IN FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES(JUST AN INCH AWAY FROM WALL)THEN REPLACE.Can I attach vinyl beadboard to bathroom walls with adhesive like Liquid Nails?
Liquid Nails was developed for the construction industry, and I'm sure it would to the job well, as the previous responder stated. You might try the manufactures web site for more information.
I wouldn't reccommend it due to the high heat and humidity which would probably loosen the Liquid nails up...I would due an anchor and screw (like for drywall or cement) and then fill in yhe screw hole with caulk or similar weather resistant filling....
i wouldn't recommend listening to the first answer.After many repeated failed attemps to repair my bathroom wall I finally resorted to the Liquid Nails.DAM!!!!!It's been up 15 years ,,,lots of hot showers etc.......No problems.
Heck yeah go at it.
