Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a PU ceiling medallion?
A: A PU ceiling medallion is a decorative polyurethane molding that frames a chandelier, ceiling fan, or pendant light. It hides wiring holes and adds architectural depth to flat ceilings. PU medallions weigh roughly 1/4 of equivalent plaster pieces and ship primed and paint-ready.
Q: How do you install Why repeat orders of ceiling medallion sets?
A: First, isolate power to the light fixture at the breaker. Apply a continuous bead of polyurethane construction adhesive to the back of Why repeat orders of ceiling medallion sets, lift it into place around the existing fixture, and press firmly against the ceiling. For heavy medallions (≥30 inches), drive two finish nails through the medallion into a ceiling joist. Patch nail heads, spackle the seam, sand smooth, and paint.
Q: What size ceiling medallion should I use?
A: Match medallion diameter to room and fixture size. A 12–18 inch medallion suits standard 8 ft ceilings and small pendants. 20–30 inch medallions anchor chandeliers in dining rooms and entryways. Use an oval medallion (e.g. 20×30 inch) over rectangular tables. The medallion should be roughly twice the diameter of the chandelier canopy.
Q: Are PU ceiling medallions paintable?
A: Yes — every PU medallion we produce arrives with a factory primer that bonds to any interior latex, acrylic, or oil-based paint. Most decorators apply two finish coats. For a metallic or antique look, use a base coat of acrylic latex followed by a glaze and dry-brush highlight.
