Troubleshooting

Coving not adhering properly

Ensure correct adhesive (FDP500/FDP700) is used for the surface type and that surfaces are clean and dry. Allow adequate curing time.

Gaps appearing at joints

Ensure precise cutting with a mitre box. Use a suitable filler or caulk to fill small gaps before painting.

Coving is difficult to cut cleanly

Use a sharp, fine-tooth saw. A mitre box is essential for accurate angle cuts and a cleaner finish.

Painted finish looks uneven

Ensure the coving surface is clean and primed if necessary before applying the top coat. Apply paint evenly and allow drying between coats.
