We've recently decorate our living room & now decided we'd like coving up around the edge of the ceiling. We've got 2m long plaster coving & adhesive. The adhesive cautions that you may need to support the coving whilst the adhesive dries.

How do you do this, bearing in mind the room is already decorated?!

Use panel/veneer pins about an inch or so long through the coving.

Only hammer them in enough to grip then when the coving adhesive has dried pull them out. Fill small hole that is left with a smear of plaster on finger then paint.
