Coving unstuck
One piece of coving that I put up a couple of months ago has become unstuck
from the wall. It's sticking quite well to the ceiling. The crack is too small to force adhesive into. Any suggestions as how to restick it? I thinking about drilling holes down from the loft behind it and then pouring a watery adhesive mix down! John --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

John If white won't show, you could try thinning some wall tile adhesive/grout and piping it with a cake decorating syringe. Don't let the wife see you using it though :-( Jim |

John squirt some 'sticks like sh1t' type adhesive up the back of it, prop it with 2 x 1 wipe off excess RT |
