Product Information

Full details

The Orac Luxxus C216 coving is designed for homeowners and renovators seeking to add traditional decorative detail to standard rooms. Its key benefit is the elegant 'egg and dart' base combined with a beaded edge, offering a refined alternative to plaster mouldings. A potential caveat is its fixed length of 2 meters, which may require careful planning for larger spaces.

FAQs

What material is the Orac Luxxus C216 coving made from?

The C216 coving is made from Purotouch®, a high-density polyurethane foam that is lightweight, durable, and easy to work with.

What are the dimensions of the C216 coving?

The coving measures 11.6 cm in height and 13.3 cm in width. It projects 13.5 cm and runs 11.5 cm down the wall, with a diagonal measurement of 17.7 cm. Each piece is 2 meters long.

Can this coving be used in a bathroom?

Yes, for bathrooms or other damp environments, use the Orac DecoFix Power adhesive. The Purotouch® material itself is resistant to moisture.

Is there a flexible version for curved walls?

Yes, Orac Decor offers the C216F, a flexible version of this coving profile specifically designed for installation on curved walls.

What adhesives are recommended for installation?

Orac Decor recommends using DecoFix Pro for standard interior applications, DecoFix Power for damp environments, and DecoFix Ultra for smoothing and finishing joints.

Can I paint this coving?

Yes, the Purotouch® material can be painted with standard water-based or solvent-based paints once the adhesive has fully cured.

What style of home is this coving best suited for?

This coving is ideal for traditional styles like Victorian and Edwardian homes, but its classic design also complements contemporary interiors seeking a touch of elegance.

Troubleshooting

Coving does not adhere well.

Ensure the wall and ceiling surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Use the correct Orac Decor adhesive for the environment (Pro for dry, Power for damp) and ensure sufficient quantity is applied.

Visible seams between pieces.

Use Orac DecoFix Ultra adhesive specifically designed for filling and smoothing joints. Ensure precise mitre cuts for a tight fit before applying the joint filler.

Difficulty cutting precise angles.

Use a sharp fine-toothed saw and a mitre box for accurate cuts. Practice cuts on scrap pieces if unsure.

Coving appears slightly uneven after installation.

Minor imperfections can often be concealed with paint. Ensure the wall and ceiling are relatively straight before installation. For significant unevenness, consider a more flexible filler along the edges.

Pros and Cons

  • Lightweight Purotouch® material is easy to handle and install.
  • Durable and resistant to moisture compared to plaster.
  • Offers a sophisticated look suitable for both contemporary and period homes.
  • Flexible variant available for curved walls.

Cons

  • Fixed length of 2 meters per piece may lead to more seams in longer rooms.

  • Not suitable for exterior applications without specific treatment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation:

  1. Measure and cut the coving pieces to size using a fine-toothed saw and mitre box for precise angles.
  2. Apply the recommended Orac Decor adhesive (DecoFix Pro for interiors) to the back of the coving profile.
  3. Press the coving firmly into place along the wall and ceiling joint.
  4. For seamless joints, use DecoFix Ultra adhesive and smooth the seam.
  5. Allow the adhesive to cure fully according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Compatibility:

  • Adhesives: Compatible with Orac DecoFix Pro (interior dry areas), DecoFix Power (interior damp areas/bathrooms), and DecoFix Ultra (for joint finishing).
  • Complementary Mouldings: Pairs well with the P7030 egg and dart dado rail and R77 egg and dart ceiling rose.
  • Flexible Option: Use C216F for curved walls.

Care:

  • Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
  • The Purotouch® material is resistant to common household solvents but should be treated gently.
