FAQs

What tools do I need?

You will need a measuring tape, saw (hand or power), adhesive or fixings, and possibly a sander, filler, and paint.

Can I paint the moulding?

Yes, the white finish is paintable. Always prime the surface first for best results.

What type of adhesive should I use?

Use a construction adhesive suitable for MDF and the surface you are attaching it to. Consider using a combination of adhesive and mechanical fixings for added hold.

Is the moulding waterproof?

MDF is not waterproof. Avoid direct exposure to water. Seal the edges, especially in areas with moisture, to prevent damage.

How do I cut the moulding?

Use a saw to cut the moulding to the required lengths. A mitre saw will give the most accurate cuts. A hand saw can also be used.

What is the D-shape for?

The D-shape is designed to cover imperfections and create a decorative edge, making it ideal for covering rough edges of sheet materials.

Troubleshooting

Moulding doesn't stick properly.

Ensure the surface is clean and dry. Use a high-quality adhesive suitable for MDF and the surface material. Consider using mechanical fixings (nails/screws) for added security.

Gaps appear after installation.

Carefully measure and cut the moulding. Use filler to fill gaps and sand smooth. Consider using a caulking gun to seal edges and gaps

Paint doesn't adhere well.

Ensure the surface is properly prepared (sanded and primed). Use a primer suitable for MDF before applying paint.
