Filling the edges

I've been trying out solutions to bridge the gap between the floor and the walls. Cardboard cut to size looks flimsy and draws attention rather then deflecting it, and is difficult to cut to size due to the walls not being perfectly angled at 150 degrees, which is the angle for a dodecagon. I encountered the same problem with coving. I collected fifteen pieces to cut to size, however due to the cheapness of the material (polystyrene), cutting the edges left a flaky edge, and paint did not take well to the surface. I think the simplest solution, which I intend to use to bridge the gaps between boards as well, is to tape over the edges with 1 ½” wide masking tape, and paint over with emulsion.
