Troubleshooting
Adhesive not holding the moulding securely
Ensure both the wall surface and the back of the moulding are completely clean and dry. Apply adhesive evenly and ensure sufficient pressure is applied during installation. Consider using temporary bracing until the adhesive fully cures.
Cutting the moulding results in rough edges
Use a very fine-toothed saw and a mitre box for clean, precise cuts. Ensure the saw blade is sharp and move it smoothly through the material.
Paint finish is uneven after application
Ensure the pre-primed surface is clean and free of dust before painting. Apply paint in thin, even coats rather than one thick coat. Allow adequate drying time between coats as recommended by the paint manufacturer.
Cannot fit cables through the chambers
Ensure you are using the chambers correctly for your cable size. For larger bundles, consider using multiple lengths of moulding or a different cable management solution. Push cables gently to avoid damaging the moulding.
