Installation Guide
Mark the position of the cornice. Draw a line where
the cornice will be fi tted.
Tip: If your ceiling is not perfectly fl at, measure from
the lowest point.
Join the marks using a chalk line.
Cut (mitre) your cornice to size using a very
fi ne toothsaw.
Tip: Mark the cornice with a pencil to show the
angle (direction) of the cut, so that you avoid
mitering at the wrong angle.
Tip: If your wall or ceiling is not perfectly straight, do
not hesitate to apply a lot of glue to fi ll up the gaps.
The excess glue can be reused.
Place the cornicing on the line and gently press the
cornicing into place. For joints, apply a small quantity
of glue and slide the cornicings towards each other
to form a closed butt joint.
Tip: If your ceiling is not perfectly fl at, do not force
the cornicing to follow the bend, leave your cornicing
straight and fi ll up the gaps with glue.
Using the spatula (scraper) remove the excess glue.
Tip: Put the excess glue back in the tub, as you can use
the glue again.
With a damp sponge wipe the edges and joints for
a perfect smooth fi nish. Your cornice is now ready to
be painted with any water-based paint. No primer is
required.
Tip: Regularly change your water to avoid white
marks on your wall or ceiling.
