Dado Rail-Best Fixing

[Bammer]

Hi All-Taking the existing dado off in the main bathroom and has been nailed on and then back filled. My intention is to use a new dado-ash-and have cut the pieces and they fit real nice and are flush to the wall. Question is whether to use adhesive or nail and back fill. The dado is finished so can't afford to stain and cover any fixings-well, might have too lol-any suggestions greatly accepted.
Thanks in advance

I use Gripfill pink to stick in place and tack underneath it to stop it slipping until dry. then pull tacks out and caulk up as normal. No fixing holes showing.

The dado rail in my last house was only stuck on with no nails.
In fact almost everything in the house had been affixed with no nails including some sockets!

gripped like the proverbial.

BTW - it was not me - but the previous owner

I refuse to have anything PINK in my tool bag - except my lucky barbie doll
