FAQs

Can I use these mouldings in a bathroom?

Yes, provided you use the recommended DecoFix Power adhesive for extra moisture resistance.

What type of paint should I use?

Use water-based, solvent-free paints to ensure the foam material is not damaged.

Do I need to prime the mouldings before painting?

No, the mouldings come pre-primed in white, so they are ready for your top coat immediately.

How do I cut the moulding for corners?

Use a fine-toothed hand saw with a mitre box to ensure clean, accurate angle cuts.

Are these suitable for heavy-duty commercial use?

These are primarily designed for residential use where the risk of physical impact is low.

Can these be installed on uneven walls?

The flexibility of the Durofoam allows it to conform to slight wall irregularities, though a good adhesive bond is crucial.

Troubleshooting

Moulding strips are not adhering to the wall.

Ensure the wall surface is clean and dust-free; if using porous surfaces, ensure DecoFix Pro is applied uniformly.

Joints between strips are visible.

Use a specialized filler for foam mouldings to fill the seams, then sand smooth once dried before painting.

Surface of the moulding is dented.

Small dents can be filled with a lightweight, water-based filler before painting; take care to handle the strips gently during installation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight and easy to handle
  • Pre-primed surface saves time on finishing
  • Provides a total of 20 meters of coverage per pack
  • Classic design fits a wide range of interior styles

Cons

  • Durofoam material is softer than plaster and can dent if impacted
  • Requires specific Orac-brand adhesives for optimal bond
  • Limited to smaller decorative dimensions (2.5 cm x 1.8 cm)

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For a secure installation, ensure the mounting surface is clean, dry, and free of dust. Use `DecoFix Pro` for standard indoor applications on porous surfaces, or `DecoFix Power` if the environment is humid or requires a higher strength adhesive bond. Apply a thin bead of adhesive to the back of the moulding and press firmly against the wall-ceiling junction. Use nails or masking tape to hold the strips in place until the adhesive cures. Once installed, fill any gaps in the mitre joints with a compatible filler, then sand lightly and apply your top coat of paint. Regularly dust the mouldings with a soft cloth to maintain their appearance.
