115 degree beads

[cox377]

Hello all,

I'm after a flexible bead that I can use on the two starting corners that are on the edges of a bay window. The angle must be at about 115 degrees to the external wall. I tried using a 90' plasterboard bead but it wont bed enough. Can anyone recommend?

It's just something for the plasterer to work upto, originally when the angles were done they didnt use a bead

Thanks in advance

I'm assuming it's a thin coat you're after....

How about a thin coat edging bead positioned on the most optimum side? (& protruding slightly)
(e.g. http://www.wickes.co.uk/Plaster-Stop-Bead/invt/224660)
If the mesh side is plastered first, it should hold secure for the edge to be worked to from the other side. After the first side has set of course

As alternative, if you put two edge beads back to back, then I'd imagine the spine may look a little thick, tho would be another option.
If it showed after plastering, a bead of caulk could smooth out.

that;s it, it's literally just a skim and a uniformed edge is what I'm after. I would have thought this must be an issue that plastering all bay windows has. I thought a plastic bead might bend but I've been advised they are tough as ****

Just use a stop bead
