You can use most types of interior paint, including water-based emulsions, acrylics, or oil-based gloss paints. For best results and durability, especially in high-traffic or potentially humid areas, consider a good quality satin, eggshell, or semi-gloss finish.
Yes, it can be used in a bathroom, but it is essential to ensure it is thoroughly sealed and painted with a moisture-resistant topcoat to protect the MDF from high humidity and potential water splashes.
For corners, you will need to use miter cuts. For an internal corner, both pieces are typically cut at a 45-degree angle, with the shorter edge on the inside. For an external corner, they are also cut at 45 degrees, with the longer edge on the outside. A miter saw or box is recommended for accuracy.
The skirting board dimensions are 18mm in thickness, 195mm in height, and 3040mm in length.
Yes, its simple, clean pencil round profile makes it versatile enough to complement modern interior designs as well as traditional ones.
Clean the skirting board with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or excessive water, as this can damage the MDF or the paint finish.
While it comes primed, a light sanding with fine-grit sandpaper (around 180-220 grit) is often recommended before painting to ensure a smooth, dust-free surface for optimal paint adhesion.
Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and free of dust or grease. Use a high-quality wood adhesive or an adequate number of fixings, ensuring they are securely installed.
This may indicate insufficient surface preparation or inadequate sealing, especially in humid areas. Lightly sand the surface, re-prime if necessary, and apply a moisture-resistant topcoat suitable for MDF.
Use a fine-tooth saw blade specifically designed for MDF or wood. Ensure the board is securely supported during cutting to prevent vibration.
This usually occurs due to excessive moisture. Ensure the area has adequate ventilation and that the skirting has been properly sealed, especially at ends and edges, before and after installation.
