how should you attach trim to an asbestos facade?
we have a house without eyes :x... there are only black holes, as is usual with eternithus.. the old horizontal paneling will eventually be revealed, but not for a few more years.. the plan now is to attach trim around the windows, but we're at a loss on HOW?? we don't want the eternit to break...:/ has anyone done this, how did you do it? help!
unfortunately, I don't have a picture on this computer... imagine eternite boards that are elongated, with a wavy bottom edge (like to imitate lying wide panel) there is basically no frame, maybe 2cm or so...:/ I want to put five inches around the windows for purely aesthetic reasons, because the house looks "dead" now... can you really glue such heavy things on a surface that isn't smooth? I know that others have put trim on their eternite houses to liven it up a bit, so it must be possible, right? or?
