Boards can be fixed using construction adhesive, finish nails, or a combination of both, working horizontally from floor to ceiling or ceiling to floor depending on your starting reference point. Once fitted, fill the butt joints and any fixings with a flexible decorators filler, sand back when dry, then apply a coat of MDF primer before your chosen paint finish for a seamless result.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between the 1200mm and 2400mm lengths?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 1200mm boards are designed to butt-join end-to-end across a wall, which keeps individual board lengths manageable and avoids the extra cost of long-length freight.
