Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the C832 moulding waterproof?

The polyurethane material is water-resistant and suitable for exterior use, provided it is installed with proper adhesive and painted to seal the surface.

Can I use standard wood glue for installation?

No. You should use a high-strength exterior-grade adhesive specifically formulated for polyurethane mouldings.

Do I need to paint the cornice?

Yes, the product must be finished with exterior-grade paint to protect the polyurethane from UV light damage.

How do I cut the mitre corners?

You can use a standard mitre box and a fine-toothed saw to achieve the necessary angles for corners.

Can this be used for interior applications?

While intended for exterior use, it can be used indoors, though its high-density material is specifically optimized for weather durability.

How is the cornice attached to the wall?

It is primarily attached using adhesive, though for overhead exterior installations, mechanical pins or nails may be used for additional security while the adhesive cures.

Troubleshooting

Joints opening after installation

This usually indicates insufficient adhesive or thermal expansion movement. Ensure the joints are cleaned, re-bonded with flexible exterior sealant, and sanded flush.

Adhesive not sticking to the substrate

Check that the surface is completely dry and free of dust or oils. Use a primer on porous surfaces like raw masonry before applying the adhesive.

Surface cracking or peeling

If the paint is peeling, the surface may not have been properly primed. Sand the area, apply an exterior primer, and re-paint using high-quality outdoor paint.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly lighter than traditional stone or concrete mouldings
  • High resistance to moisture and exterior weather conditions
  • Easy to cut and mitre for custom corner fits
  • Provides a high-end architectural finish to plain eaves

Cons

  • Requires specific exterior-grade adhesive for long-term bonding
  • Visible joints must be filled carefully to maintain a seamless look
  • Requires painting after installation to ensure full UV protection

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the C832 cornice, ensure the mounting surface is clean, dry, and free of loose debris. Use a fine-toothed saw to perform mitre cuts for corners. Always apply an exterior-grade, high-tack adhesive specifically recommended for polyurethane mouldings. It is critical to apply a thin bead of sealant at the seams to ensure a weather-tight fit. Once installed, the moulding should be primed and painted with exterior-grade paint to provide a protective barrier against UV radiation and pollutants. Periodic inspection of joints is recommended every few years to ensure the adhesive bond remains solid.
