Coving - Polyurethane?

Has anyone used Polyurethane Coving? (not polystyrene)
My plasterer tells me its lighter and better finish than gyproc stuff...

Undecided.....:)

    No idea about the finish but it is much lighter, cheaper and easier to work with than gyproc
  • Yep, we did our back bedroom using is (41x41 section if i remember correctly) stuck it up with Evo Stick no more nails, tacked it in place until it has set, bit of light filling and it came out great.

    Our ceiling was far from level and the coving has a good amount of flex.

    Its got a pre-primered finish, just light undercoat and then topcoat
