I have bought Scotia beading but am having serious issues cutting the angles for the corners.I have usrd a mitre box but due to the "dish" effect of the trim cannot grt the angles right. .

best way to cut the scotia is this; imagine the right angle between the wall ans floor,now look at the scotia,the 2 flat sections on the reverse side sit on the floor and wall.now look at the mitre box,the flat base is the floor,the upright face is the wall.if you keep this in mind the you can't go far wrong.always assume that the walls are out of square :-) never fix the scotia to the floor,only to the wall. any gaps between the scotia and the wall can be caulked and painted. another tip is to match the colour of the trim to the wall not the floor,it seems to not be as noticable-it's difficult to get an exact colour match to the flooring whilst you can always paint the scotia before fitting hope this helps bill kendall bk design
