FAQs
Can this moulding be used outdoors?
This product is designed for interior use. Using it outdoors may lead to rapid degradation unless properly treated with high-grade exterior finishes.
Is this product flexible for curved surfaces?
No, this is a solid timber product and does not have the flexibility required for curved applications.
How do I join two lengths together?
For the cleanest look, use a scarf joint (a 45-degree overlapping cut) to connect two lengths along a flat surface.
What is the best way to attach it to the wall?
Use a combination of wood adhesive and small, headless panel pins for the most secure and aesthetically pleasing installation.
Does the moulding come pre-finished?
No, the moulding arrives as raw timber, allowing you to customize it to match your specific interior decor.
Troubleshooting
Moulding is splitting during nailing
Pre-drill small pilot holes before driving panel pins to prevent the timber from cracking.
Uneven gaps between segments
Ensure your miter saw is calibrated to a perfect 45-degree angle and use a mitering block for manual cuts.
Paint not adhering correctly
Ensure all dust is removed from the wood surface after sanding and apply a high-quality wood primer before painting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install this moulding, ensure your surface is clean and dry. Use a fine-tooth saw to cut the moulding to the required length at 45-degree angles for corner miters. It is recommended to attach the moulding using wood glue and fine-gauge panel pins, ensuring the pins are countersunk for a smooth surface.
Care Instructions:
- Prior to installation, store the timber in a climate-controlled environment to prevent warping.
- Always sand lightly with fine-grit sandpaper before applying your final finish.
- Inspect the wood grain before staining to ensure a uniform look across multiple strips.
