B&Q PVC Flat Bar Trim - 50mm X 1 Metre

Its primary purpose is to provide a neat, protective finish to wall edges and surfaces, preventing damage from knocks and scuffs, and offering a clean aesthetic.

This PVC trim is typically designed to be used as is with its white finish. Painting may affect its durability and appearance, and specific paint compatibility is not guaranteed without testing.

Clean the trim by wiping it with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

A high-strength grab adhesive suitable for plastics and building materials is generally recommended. Always follow the adhesive manufacturer's instructions for application and curing times.

While the uPVC is UV-stable and moisture-resistant, it is primarily intended for interior and exterior *wall surfaces* in a protected building context. Prolonged exposure to harsh weather may affect its appearance over time.

The trim is described as flexible, but it is designed for flat profiles. It may conform to very gentle curves but is not suitable for sharp or tight curves.

This particular trim is 50mm wide and comes in 1-metre lengths.

Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and properly prepared. Use a high-quality grab adhesive suitable for PVC and the wall substrate. Ensure sufficient adhesive is applied and the trim is held in place until the adhesive sets.

Use a sharp fine-toothed saw or a quality utility knife. Score the surface multiple times if using a knife. Ensure the trim is securely supported during cutting to prevent flexing.

Check for an uneven wall surface beneath the trim. Ensure the trim is applied with firm, even pressure. If the issue persists, the trim may be faulty or the application surface is problematic.
