Troubleshooting
Beading does not fit snugly
Ensure the expansion gap is within the intended range for this beading. Check if the wall or flooring is uneven and adjust the beading placement or consider shimming if necessary.
Difficulty in cutting clean angles
Use a sharp fine-toothed saw and a mitre box for precise angle cuts. Practice on a spare piece before cutting the main lengths.
Adhesive not holding beading securely
Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust before applying adhesive. Use a suitable flooring adhesive recommended for your specific flooring and wall type.
