FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this rigid angle trim?
Its primary purpose is to provide a clean, protective edge for internal and external wall corners, offering a true square finish and preventing damage from knocks and scuffs.
Can this trim be used in bathrooms or kitchens?
Yes, the uPVC material is moisture-resistant, making it suitable for use in kitchens and bathrooms where humidity is present.
How is the trim installed?
It can be installed using a suitable grab adhesive or by securing it with screws. Ensure the surface is properly prepared before application.
What are the dimensions of this trim?
The dimensions are 100mm x 100mm, providing a 90° angle profile.
Is this trim paintable?
While designed to be used as is, uPVC can often be painted with specialized primers and paints designed for plastic. However, painting may affect its UV stability and finish.
What type of adhesive should I use?
A strong grab adhesive suitable for plastics and building materials is recommended. Always check the adhesive manufacturer's guidelines for compatibility.
How do I clean the trim?
Clean the trim with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
Troubleshooting
Trim is not adhering to the wall.
Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Use a high-quality grab adhesive suitable for uPVC and construction materials. For heavier applications, consider using screws in conjunction with adhesive.
Trim appears slightly warped or uneven.
Ensure the surface it is being applied to is flat. If the trim itself has a slight curve from storage, it may need gentle warming (e.g., with a hairdryer on a low setting) and then careful pressing into place while the adhesive sets.
Cutting the trim leaves a rough edge.
Use a sharp, fine-toothed saw for clean cuts. For a smoother finish, you can lightly sand the cut edge with fine-grit sandpaper.
