DECOFIX PRO (FDP500) is a strong, water-based, acrylic installation adhesive for indoor installation on porous surfaces and non-humid rooms.
DECOFIX POWER (FDP700) is an ultra-strong MS-polymer installation adhesive used for large moldings or for outdoor use, on non-porous surfaces (tile, glass, etc.) or humid environments such as the bathroom.
These glues can be painted after drying (24 hours minimum waiting time).
We recommend using one cartridge for approximately 10 linear meters of moldings.
How to get the best finish between cornices?
For perfect joints, we recommend DecoFix Extra glue (FX400).
After gluing the two moldings, it is important to press them together. Excess glue must be removed immediately with a spatula. After 20 minutes, the excess glue is removed again with a spatula and the joint is lightly sanded. This joint can then be finished with Decofiller filler (FL300).
How to remove glue residue?
• DecoFix Pro FDP500 (for porous surfaces indoors): remove immediately with water.
• DecoFix Power FDP700 (for all interior and exterior surfaces): immediately with a soapy solution or a cleaning cloth.

If you need to cut larger moldings, the FB300 cutting box with its FB14 saw will make your task easier.
For professionals, we offer the VARIOMATIC FB10 cutting box with its case and accessories. It adapts to all angles for high-precision cutting.

Yes, this is possible using DecoFix Power (FDP700) adhesive. However, it is important that the painted surface is clean, dry, and grease-free. It is best to remove wallpaper before installing moldings, if necessary by cutting it out and removing it at the desired location. If this is not possible, use DecoFix Power as an adhesive to stick your moldings.
