I want to lay laminate flooring in my lounge ,only slight problem
I'm thinking of, there is a very slight curve on my hearth,would
plastic edging bend slightly to finish it off.I did a bedroom and
put wood edging round instead of taking off all the skirting and
it looks fine.If I can match the colouring would that work?
putting it on with no nails.


The beading will bend a lot, but the limiting factor is how you
'stick it down', with a bend in it, until the 'glue' goes off.


Heavy furniture and garden canes spring to mind here.


Put the beading down with your choice of 'glue' and arrange the
heavy furniture, so that you can use canes ,bits of wood, furniture
itself, to ensure that the beading will remain in place until the
'glue' takes a grab.


The word 'glue' is my way of saying what you think may be a suitable
medium for adhesion for this project.

The beading will not ben around a corner.

we're talking 1" quadrant here and plastic L shape?


To most people, a "very slight curve" is not a corner.

Curve/corner doesn't, matter 1" quadrant/L shaped plastic will not bend
around that curve or half circle?
it has to be cut at the back with V grooves to form it around the obstacle.
