Can you nail scotia to plasterboard?

Hello @Bec3168 

Thanks for sharing your question about installing scotia on plaster board. Technically the scotia is attached with adhesive, and the purpose of the nail is to hold the scotia in place until the adhesive cures. But using just nails to install it on plaster board is not advisable as the nails will pull out. 

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.
