Hi all im a bit new to angle beads,so how do we hold them on plaster board corners ? also they have plaster board up to a rough bit of old plaster so im thinking of giving it a coat of unibond so i can skim over the hole wall what you recon ? many thanx woody
 
I generally use round headed nails to fix thin coats or sometimes staple them on.
Bonding the plaster surface would be recommended, you will need to make sure the joint is not going to crack, so may need to rake a little out and apply tape.
