1) Mark exactly
where you want the coving to sit. Do this by using a short length of
coving – say 100mm – to act as a template. Mark the top and
bottom of this template at regular intervals along the wall, then
join up using a straight edge to create your guide.
2) Then score between the pencil guidelines to give you a good key for the adhesive.
3) Start on the longest wall in a corner. Use a mitre block and a saw to cut the coving's end at a 45° angle, sanding off any rough edges.
4) Spread coving adhesive over the back of the first piece of coving, manoeuvre into place between your marked lines. Press along the length so the adhesive sticks firmly.
5) Any excess adhesive that oozes out can be removed with a damp sponge.
6) Continue working your way around the room butting one piece up against the next.
