Coving, which adhesive to use?

[carryoncamping]

I'm soon to put up some coving and just wondered what adhesive to use? I have some Bonding adhesive left over from putting up the plasterboard, is that suitable, can't think why not?

Thanks

it grabs like heck.

it is sandable.

it fills well.

Going well, just finishing off the plasterboard, then get the plasterer in to skim it. I did envisage having a go myself, but for speed and hassle free I decided to get the pros in

my mate uses artex or dab propper coving addehsive is suppose to be dear stuff well cheaper to use dab or artex anyway

Coving's pretty dated looking these days. I've used it in the past and now wish I hadn't. Consider not using it.

I suppose the same goes with arches too?
