Hi,

Having my first attempt at putting coving up (paper covered plaster stuff)
and been told that the coving adhesive goes off very quickly. Tiling
adhesive has been suggested as a better alternative. Does this sound
reasonable or is there anything better,

Cheers,

Graham.

Have used ready mixed tile adhesive myself to good effect but to give it 
time to go off I also use long panel pins or nails (2" or more) every 2 or 3 
feet to fix the coving to the wall firmly, then fill the gaps (no walls or 
ceilings are true) when the adhesive has gone off.

Hope this helps

Alan
