I'm redecorating my council flat after Xmas and I'm going to rip down some dado (thin) rail that was up before I moved in. The problem is that the PVC window frames have been cut to fit around the dado. After I rip it down I was going to fill it (the cut out) painstakingly neatly and paint it with white gloss, but I can't help but think it will look a mess. Does anyone know of any tips such as using PVC offcuts etc that might do the trick. As I mentioned it's a council flat so I cant go overboard on either cost or work. Thanks for any help, Lee.

A 20mm upvc cloaking fillet should do the job.

I doubt they have cut the frame - more likely the fillet strips they used to cover damage to decor etc.

These can easily be removed, and a new peice fitted, or removed and the walls made good and decorated.

Any chance of a pic?  See the sticky topic at the top of all boards for info on posting pics.

I doubt B&Q will have cloaking filletts.  You'll need a upvc stockist, most towns have them.  They usually also sell upvs fascias and cladding etc.

Stick them on with white silicone (assuming windows are white.....)

The op said he wanted a gloss paint finish, you cannot paint over silicon sealant.

........and B&Q does sell this stuff, I've had some from Farnborough store before.
