  Arslan,

  What is the wall made of?

  Smooth, rough, sealed, flaky, or whatever?

  Don’t bother to use vinyl as a background. The adhesives on it are FAR less effective than those on a good double sided tape.

  If you use a good quality FOAM Double sided tape and it will stick as well as it ever can.

  The alternative is to have the wall repainted in a satin or gloss paint to improve the stick.
