Load a tube of your chosen construction adhesive, such as Pattex 'No More Nails', into a caulk gun. Carefully cut the tip of the adhesive tube at an angle to create an opening suitable for a consistent bead. With steady pressure on the caulk gun trigger, apply a continuous, even bead of adhesive along the entire back surface of each cut molding piece. Ensure the adhesive is applied near the edges for maximum adhesion, but avoid applying too much, which could squeeze out excessively when pressed against the wall.
