Product Information

Full details

The Orac Decor P8040F LUXXUS moulding is designed for architects, interior designers, and homeowners seeking an elegant and durable solution for wall paneling and facade refurbishment. Its key benefit is offering a large, symmetrical profile that provides a substantial decorative element, resistant to weather unlike traditional plaster. A potential caveat is its size, which might be overpowering for very small spaces. Key features include its lightweight polyurethane construction, pre-applied base coat for easy painting, and suitability for both interior and exterior use.

FAQs

What type of adhesive should I use?

For interior applications, Orac Decor DecoFix Pro (FX200) or DecoFix Extra (FX210) is recommended. For exterior applications, use DecoFix Hydro (FDP700).

Can this moulding be used outdoors?

Yes, the Orac P8040F is suitable for exterior use when installed with the correct exterior-grade adhesive (FDP700) and painted with weather-resistant paint.

How do I clean the moulding?

Clean the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive materials or strong cleaning agents.

What is the minimum radius this moulding can bend to?

The minimum bending radius for this moulding is 30 cm.

Does the moulding come pre-painted?

The moulding comes with a pre-applied white base coat, ready for you to apply your chosen paint color.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will need a measuring tape, a fine-toothed saw (preferably for polymer), a mitre box or saw guide, a caulking gun for adhesive, and a spatula or putty knife.

How long is each piece of moulding?

Each piece of Orac Decor P8040F moulding is 200 cm (2 meters) in length.

Troubleshooting

Moulding not adhering properly

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and properly prepared. Use the correct type and amount of adhesive recommended for the material and application (interior/exterior). Allow adequate curing time.

Paint finish is uneven

Apply paint in thin, even coats. Ensure the base coat is dry before applying the final paint. Use a high-quality brush for a smoother finish.

Difficulty achieving clean cuts

Use a sharp, fine-toothed saw specifically designed for cutting polymers or rigid foam. A mitre box or saw guide will ensure accurate angles.

Moulding appears to sag or bow over time

Ensure sufficient adhesive was used during installation. For long runs, consider using additional fixings or support if the adhesive alone is not sufficient, especially in variable temperature environments.

Pros and Cons

  • Elegant, large profile suitable for significant design statements
  • Lightweight for easier installation
  • Pre-primed for quick and simple painting

Cons

  • The large profile may be too dominant for small rooms

  • Minimum bending radius limits application on very tight curves

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation:

  1. Ensure the mounting surface is clean, dry, and free of dust or debris.
  2. Cut the moulding to the desired length using a fine-toothed saw and a mitre box for precise angles. A specific saw for polyurethane may yield the best results.
  3. Apply a suitable strong adhesive (e.g., Orac Decor's DecoFix or FDP700 for exterior use) to the back of the moulding, following the adhesive manufacturer's instructions.
  4. Press the moulding firmly into place. For exterior applications, use the appropriate exterior-grade adhesive.
  5. Allow the adhesive to cure completely before painting.

Painting:

  • The moulding comes with a white base coat. Apply one coat of acrylic or water-based paint using a brush for a smooth finish.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for application on most interior walls and ceilings. For exterior use, ensure the correct exterior-grade adhesive and paint are used.
  • Can be installed on surfaces with slight curves due to its minimum bending radius of 30 cm.

Care:

  • Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the paint finish or material.
