Have any of you guys used Screwfixes white uPVC external render beads? I`m concerned they might be a bit cheap and flimsy. Do they come well packaged as they have to travel quite far to get to me?
The only plastic beading that I use, is the one that goes around the radius of a plasterboard archway,the rest are too flimsy.For everything else,internal or external I would use galvanised or stainless steel.These come in longer lengths than plastic as well.
You can use plastic corner beading for plasterboard,and some people probably do,but galvanised "thin coat bead" gives a stronger job, and is what most tradesman would use for the job.Again,they come in 3mtr lengths. Corner tape is also widely used,but again, I prefer not to use it, exept around plasterboard window reveals,or on any other corner that wont be taking any knocks.
