These rails were easy to install and gave my project a nice clean look.Pro Tip:If you are new to this, you might want to enlist the help of a contractor for installation. They are a bit tricky to mud in. You MUST prep these for the best look. Before you plaster these in, you need to do your rail and light install. Test your lights. Next install the diffusers and then tape the diffusers off with painters' tape. Don't leave any tape overhang, or you will pull your fresh mud and paint back off of your rail. If you do not take the time to tape, you will have a rail full of mud and your project will be ruined. Mudding them in takes patience as they're likely installed in the back of something, so it takes a bit more effort to make sure that they're nice and smooth. Remove the tape promptly after painting your project. The longer you wait, the more difficult it will be to remove the tape. Immediately after painting, the tape is still soft. Use a razor blade to carefully score along the rail line for the cleanest finish. Again, your angle will probably be an odd reach.Another tip:If you're doing an entertainment wall like we did, think about putting the rails in the upper coves into the bottom of the cove so that you don't have to look at it when you're watching TV. In hindsight, I would have installed the very top and the top 4 side coves into the bottom of the cove instead of the top. Although it looks amazing, it would have been better to not have to see the lights when watching tv. Just a personal note there.Highly recommend the rails. They are economical and easy to install lights into. Just know what you're getting yourself into when installing something like this.

These Lightotech Channels work great. They hold your LED strip lights, and the diffuser snaps on top.
