How to bend Luxury Vinyl Planks (LVP)?
I have watched many YouTube clips and now want to see if anyone here has any experience bending a curve in LVP.
I have 15 stairs with bullnose fronts that I want to bend the LVP flooring for.
I will have to buy a quality heat gun to do the job.
Not one of the YouTube clips used a metal pipe to bend the LVP over, which I thought would be better than timber as its important that the LVP retains its heat to make a good bend, but of course I dont know.
Over to you, the experts..
Typical bullnose for the 15 steps

Re: How to bend Luxury Vinyl Planks (LVP)?
Yes.
That's building on the idea of how to do it.. Unfortunately I dont have the capacity to weld anything so I would need to go outside for that, but that is a great idea.
I will have to consider perhaps getting a simple jig made, if nothing more suitable comes up.
In the meantime someone mentioned using Aluminium bullnose which I then investigated on Google..
For those who may also be interested.. Have a look at what I found.
It just so happen that the 'Spotted Gum' is the Vinyl Plank laid in our place.
I would need to get a sample and get the approval from the 'Minister for Everything'.
To me is answers all of the issues, to do with safety appearance and simplicity, and I could get on with a million other things that keep me busy
