Fix to a plumb, solid substrate using cut nails or finish nails for traditional framing, or a suitable grab adhesive combined with pins on dry-lined walls. Apply a primer coat before painting, or a suitable wood stain or oil if a natural finish is required, ensuring all end grain is sealed to minimise moisture movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between nominal and finished size on redwood skirting?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNominal size is the rough sawn measurement before machining.
