FAQs

What material is this trim made from?

The trim is made from durable, non-toxic UPVC plastic.

Can this trim be painted?

While UPVC can be painted, it is not recommended as the standard finish is designed for durability and low maintenance. If painting, use a primer specifically designed for plastics and a suitable topcoat.

How do I clean the trim?

You can easily clean the trim with a damp cloth and mild soapy water. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will need a tape measure, a pencil, a fine-tooth saw for cutting, and either a strong grab adhesive or pins/nails for fixing.

Is this product suitable for outdoor use?

This product is primarily designed for interior finishing. While UPVC is weather-resistant, its suitability for direct outdoor exposure depends on the specific application and environmental conditions.

What are the dimensions of this specific product?

This variant is 45mm wide and 1 meter long.

Is this product compliant with safety standards?

Yes, it features a non-toxic UPVC composition and is REACH compliant, ensuring peace of mind for use in homes and commercial spaces.

Troubleshooting

Trim does not cut cleanly

Ensure you are using a fine-tooth saw specifically designed for plastics. A coarser blade can lead to chipping or splintering.

Adhesive not holding trim securely

Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust before applying adhesive. Use a high-quality grab adhesive suitable for UPVC and allow adequate curing time as per the adhesive manufacturer's instructions.

Trim appears slightly warped

Allow the trim to acclimatize to room temperature for at least 24 hours before cutting and installation, especially if it has been stored in a cold environment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Measure the length of the area to be trimmed.
  2. Mark the UPVC trim using a pencil.
  3. Cut the trim to the desired length using a fine-tooth saw for a clean cut.
  4. Apply a suitable grab adhesive to the back of the trim or to the surface being covered.
  5. Alternatively, secure the trim using pins or nails, ensuring they are appropriate for UPVC.
  6. Press the trim firmly into place, ensuring a flush fit.

Compatibility:

Wipe the surface clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners, which can damage the finish. The UV-stable nature of the UPVC means it resists fading from sunlight.
