It is available with and without sticky tape. Personally I would not
bother with the sticky tape variety but fasten it to the wall with
nails or screws. Before the sides are clipped up nails are a doddle,
as another poster has indicated.


If you are going to do that, then it is better to use the already
moulded stuff in the first place


Nailing the already moulded stuff is rather more difficult. Note
carefully that I didn't say impossible, just rather more difficult.

- The trunking has a tendency to curl

Not after the sides have been clipped up.


Don't you believe it. It then twists instead.


Not in my experience.


It must be colder in your part of the country.
