Ensure the surface is clean and dry. Use an appropriate adhesive for PVC and the substrate. Apply sufficient adhesive and hold the profile firmly in place during the drying process.

Cutting the profile is difficult.

Use a fine-tooth saw or utility knife. Make slow, precise cuts. Consider using a mitre box for accurate angles.
