National Skirting Lisbon - White

You can use most types of interior paint, including water-based emulsions, acrylics, or oil-based paints. For a durable finish, consider using a satin, semi-gloss, or gloss paint.

While made from moisture-resistant MDF, it is best suited for general interior use. For areas with consistently high humidity or direct water exposure like a bathroom, consider specialized moisture-proof materials. Ensure it is properly sealed with paint if used in a more humid environment.

Use a mitre box or a mitre saw to cut a 45-degree angle on each board. Ensure the angles meet precisely for a neat corner joint. A fine-tooth saw blade will provide the cleanest cut.

Each board measures 3040mm (approximately 10 feet) in length.

It is generally recommended to remove old skirting before installing new boards to ensure a secure and flush fit against the wall. Installing over existing skirting can lead to an uneven finish and potential structural issues.

Store boards flat in a dry, temperature-controlled environment away from direct sunlight and moisture to prevent warping or damage.

Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and free from dust. Use a high-quality adhesive specifically designed for MDF skirting boards or appropriate mechanical fixings.

Ensure the primed surface was adequately sanded and cleaned before painting. Apply paint in thin, even coats, allowing each coat to dry thoroughly before applying the next. Use a high-quality primer and topcoat.

Use a sharp, fine-tooth saw blade designed for wood or MDF. Ensure the board is securely supported during cutting to prevent vibration.
