Gluing moldings to a concrete wall? Which glue?
Hello!
Currently finishing the last touches with moldings in a room
But it's not possible to drill due to the width of the molding.
Is there any adhesive that "grips" immediately?
I don't have much surface area to adhere to since there's quite a large gap between the wardrobe and the wall.

It doesn't adhere immediately, but you can glue with PL400. Apply in beads, press on, release, wait for 20 seconds, and then press on again. If the moldings are unruly, you need to fixate them with something.
Going to try that, the wall isn't straight either, so you have to build out the molding with something if it's going to work, but I'll try gluing one side and then pressing out a bit more so it grips there. Thanks for the tip.
The downside of PL400 is that things attached with it can never be removed once it's dried. "No more nails" from Pattex is a more suitable adhesive in this case, and it bonds almost immediately.
