Hi,
I more frequently am in CT, but as an experienced DIYer, I occasionally take a look to see what the more professional builders are doing.
For a change I am also somewhat stuck. I am trying to install Styrofoam type molding between the wall / ceiling. The supply store sold me some sort of gloppy white glue which based on the picture is clearly for installing foam decorative pieces. (the instructions are in many languages, just none that I can speak or read) I got one piece up, but the glue takes so long to set that this was quite a difficult task. Get on side in place, then the other end falls off…. the molding strips are 2 meters long, I got quite a work out pushing it back in place!
I was thinking of trying plain latex caulking, however for a change I thought I would ask if there are better ways to put this stuff up before I muck up my nicely repainted walls
thanks Yisrael

I've installed Fypon foam moldings and the manufacturer sells an adhesive as well, for joints and for holding the moldings to the walls. However you will still need to nail it up, just not as much;24" or 32" oc plus the joints. That or use a thousand props to hold the molding up until the glue sets...
