How To Install
Step 1
Make sure the surface is dry and clean. Mark the wall using a string line or chalk line.
Step 2
Measure and mark the back of the moulding using a square. Using a fine tooth handsaw or drop saw to cut to length required. If mitres are required a mitre box is suggested.
Step 3
Attach mould using recommended adhesive.
Cartridge – 20mm spots along the back approx 300mm apart
*** check adhesive states suitable for - use on Polystyrene or Foam ***
(Larger spots for large moulds) or a zigzag pattern of application can be used
Spray Adhesive – spray 2 lines - 1 approx. 20mm down from the top and the other 20mm up from the bottom or a zigzag pattern of application
Step 4
Push moulding into place as previously marked and slide back and forth to ensure full contact between wall and adhesive, pull off the wall and leave until tacky. (Test by touching adhesive, when glue grabs straight away) Reposition moulding lightly taping.
It can be taped or propped with nails underneath until totally dry.
**Never prop or fix with nails or screws through the face of the mould**
Adhesive must also be applied to all mitres and butt joins
Step 5
Continue fixing all moulds in place in the same way.
Step 6
Once adhesive is totally dry (mould will not move). Moulds are ready for sealant.
Use masking tape around the perimeter edge of the mould; leaving approx 5mm gap between the mould and wall will help ensure a clean and neat sealing job. Sealant must have contact on the mould and the wall to help adhere moulds aswell as sealing to prevent any water/dirt behind the mould ensuring longer adhesion.
Step 7
A smooth continuous bead is applied to the perimeter then smoothed off with a wet finger or damp cloth. Once dry, tape can be removed.
Step 8
Coating – Joining Kits
Raw Ends
Smear 1 even coat of the Joining Mix over raw ends with a spatula or trowel. Allow to dry. Lightly sand using an off cut of moulding. Repeat this process 3 times
Corners/Mitres and Butt Joins
Apply spray adhesive on one (1) end when fixing each length together, push until spray adhesive oozes out. Pull apart and let this tack off, and reposition so a tight join is created, leaving excess glue to dry - do not wipe away. Let dry completely. Once dry this can be cut away with a sharp stanley knife. once completely dry, Lightly sand smooth using a mould off cut or fine sand paper.
Join is now ready for 2-3 coats of the Patch Kit
Step 9
Apply joining mix over the face of the join, blending and feathering in with a damp sponge or damp paint brush. Let dry and sand with sandpaper or an off cut of moulding. Let dry and fill again, sand back so it is smooth and ready for painting.
