Default Floor molding advice needed.

"OFWW" wrote in message ...

I have a new wall dividing a room made with steel studs, like you
see on most commercial jobs.

Problem is with the floor molding attachment. I know nails should be
fairly worthless there, or so I would think, so it would seem that
some sort of gluing would be necessary but how would I be able to
ensure a tight fit to the wall short of using screws with the
attendant filling problem? Or am I just looking at this all wrong?


Practical advice is needed. Thank you in advance.



Use trim screws... they are designed for this. They have a very small head
and the trim can be filled like it was a finish nail.

For example
