Thanks

It shouldn't be difficult?? What sort of problem are you having?

You should apply walnut size daubs with a small joint knife. Sometimes if the adhesive is a bit wet the daubs can fall off the battens a bit. In which case you need to spread it a bit as well, to take hold of the batten. Just make sure you still have about 20mm depth of adhesive on the batten.

Cheers
