Step 5: Lightly mark the molding where the gaps are and "adjust" the profile. A file, sandpaper or utility knife may be used to do this. |
Step 6: The amount of fine-tuning required depends on how the molding is to be finished. If the trim is to be painted, you may cope the molding, fill the gaps with painters caulk or putty and then touch up the exposed areas. If clear finish is to be used then you must adjust your cuts carefully as heavily-puttied joints will show like a sore thumb. |
