[donhalshanks]

I'm interested in knowing what was used for filling "seams" by those who have used fhe reverse side of vinyl (or linoleum) for a backdrop against drywall?

I would go to a vinyl store and ask that question. On floors there is a glue product much like styrene glue, it welds the two pieces together. This would seem to be your ideal product as it would weld your two pieces together to become one.

The vinyl store glue is going to bond the pieces Rick, but how does one fill the seam so that there is no sign of it on the backdrop when it's painted over? Would drywall compound work, or would it crack out of the seam?

If you haven't purchased your flooring backdrop, why not consider aluminium flashing instead. I can't remember the maximum height of aluminium flashing, but it isn't to bad, go to home depot or the like and check it out.

Aluminium flashing comes in incredibly long rolls so no seams.

I think you have a problem in trying to get rid of seams in linoleum to be honest with you.
