Laminate Flooring as Wainscoting

I am thinking of using laminate flooring as wainscoting in a small guest bathroom. There is only a sink and toilet in there and it is seldom used. I found some laminate that has a panel look with a groove at each section and it is the right color so want to to give a try. I would stick it to the wall with liquid nails. Only question is expansion. I can't see there being any if very little since the room is quite dry, air conditioned and seldom used. Your thoughts or comments would be appreciated.

Thin MDF beadboard is installed all the time without expansion problems. I can see no reason why laminate flooring would be any different. It's just thin MDF boards after all. Besides walls lead a much easier life than floors.

I'm curious, what brand and style of laminate are you using? It sounds like an interesting alternative to plan old beadboard.
