laminate -slight curve on hearth
 

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.

A router would sort out that curve profile.

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.

Cut the laminate to fit the hearth then

Its not hard..you can use a mastic to make and expansion joint there if
needs be.

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?

You're the only one who has mentioned anything about the size or shape.
You don't need anything like 1".

it has to be cut at the back with V grooves to form it around the obstacle.

Simple saw cuts will do the job.
