Reading the article on green board. I was wondering if you use tile on the board half of the way up, may be 4 ft, then use vinyl wall paper with a regular vinyl glue, on the top half, can you use plastic vapor barrier and raft papered insulation behind this tile and wall paper? Will you run into the same problem as that stated in the article, ruining the core of the wall board. Home building #133 pgs 138 and 140. Please let me know, if possible. Thanks Phil
