Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Preparation: Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or loose paint. Acclimatize the boards to the room environment for at least 24 hours before installation.
- Cutting: Measure and cut boards to the required lengths using a fine-tooth saw for clean, precise cuts. Mitre cuts will be needed for corners.
- Fitting: Attach the skirting boards to the wall using appropriate adhesive, nails, or screws. Ensure a snug fit against the wall and floor.
- Finishing: Once installed, fill any nail holes or small gaps with wood filler. Lightly sand the entire surface if necessary.
- Painting: Apply your chosen paint system (e.g., primer, undercoat, and topcoat) according to the paint manufacturer's instructions. Allow adequate drying time between coats.
Compatibility:
This skirting board is compatible with most standard wall and flooring types. It is designed for interior use and can be installed in most residential rooms.
Care:
Clean the skirting board with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or excessive water, as this can damage the MDF and finish. For stubborn marks, use a mild detergent solution and dry immediately.
