FAQs
What type of adhesive should I use?
While not included, we recommend using a strong construction adhesive or a molding-specific glue that is compatible with polystyrene and your wall surface. Always follow the adhesive manufacturer's instructions.
Can I cut the molding to fit custom angles?
The molding is pre-cut for standard applications. While polystyrene can be cut with appropriate tools (like a fine-tooth saw), achieving clean, custom angles may require practice and the right equipment.
How do I clean the molding?
Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning pads that could damage the finish or material.
Is this molding suitable for bathrooms?
Yes, the premium polystyrene material is resistant to moisture, making it a suitable choice for bathrooms and other humid environments, provided it is properly installed and sealed if necessary.
How many pieces are in a package?
Each package contains 18 wall molding kits, with each kit comprising 3 pieces, totaling 54 individual pieces of molding per package.
Can I paint the molding?
Yes, the molding is designed to be paintable. We recommend using a primer suitable for polystyrene before applying your chosen paint for best results.
What is the coverage area per package?
A single package is designed to cover walls approximately 10 feet high by 11 feet wide.
Troubleshooting
Molding not adhering to the wall
Ensure the wall surface is properly cleaned and dry. Use a high-quality construction adhesive or molding glue suitable for polystyrene and your wall type. Ensure adequate pressure is applied during installation and allow sufficient curing time.
Gaps between molding pieces
Check if the wall surface is perfectly flat. For minor gaps, a paintable caulk can be used after the adhesive has cured. Ensure precise alignment during application.
Molding appears uneven or warped
This is unlikely with polystyrene, but if it occurs, re-adhere the section ensuring it's pressed flat against the wall. Ensure the product was stored properly before installation, away from extreme temperatures.
Paint finish is not smooth
Ensure the molding surface is clean and free of dust before painting. Use a primer designed for plastics or polystyrene, followed by thin, even coats of your chosen paint.
