...or when an experienced professional who knows what he's doing, such as myself, can't get to behave consistently. Sizing the raw canvas and board first will (sometimes) give you a better adhesion, just like joining wood.

Lesley, most wallpaper glue these days is a premixed vinyl compound which is likely not acid free. You might find some that's made of just wheat paste powder, but it's often not readily available. You can also make a paste with pastry flour, which is lower in protein than bread flours and less appealing to bugs.
