How to Saw Vinyl Moulding

Moulding adds a different style to your home. Most moulding goes around the top of rooms in your home, although you also may find it installed in kitchens and on kitchen cabinets. Vinyl molding is a specific style that often allows for the easier creation of different styles. The moulding also has fewer problems than wood in terms of dents, paint colors and cutting. Cutting vinyl moulding is similar to regular moulding, although a different type of saw may be necessary.
