I'm about to fit the end trims to my laminated worktops in the kitchen. I have been supplied with laminated strips to be ironed onto a PVA coating on the end of the worktops. But the trims are several mm wider/thicker than the 38mm thickness of the worktops.
Trimming the length and shaping the rolled edge is easy enough but what is the best way to trim the surplus width? Should I leave a small edge proud to act as a drip edge below the end of the worktop - the end of the worktop projects about 2cm beyond the cupboard - or should I trim it to be flush all round?
Should I fit it and then trim or trim and then fit? Scissors cut through it easily enough but won't be an option once I've fixed it in place so what is the best tool to cut/shape and reduce thickness before or after fixing?
Thanks, Tim.
