  • All our skirting boards in the living room are held on with no more nails - they are still firmly fixed to the wall after 18 months.

    I've used it to put up pine cladding and thats was still holding 5 years later.
    The problem comes removing what you have stuck up as it takes the plaster with it!

    Did you put something against the skirting to hold it in place while the glue went off? We've had builders renovating a property for us and they used some very smelly special glue for the skirtings and they had pieces of wood from one side of the room to the other to hold them in place for a few hours.

    Also, they told us for jobs you'd use No More Nails for that Sticks Like Sh*t is the bees knees (not a joke, they showed me the tube, made by Evostik).

    'Hard as Nails' from Poundland is probably just as good anyway.

    Yep, also used for skirting boards in the past with no problems.

    I must admit I've always braced them until I'm convinced it's all set, though.
