Hi
I need to cut some Kingspan Kooltherm K17 dry-lining board. I want to make a really nice job of it so that it s not necessary to skim- plaster it when its mounted on the wall.
Kingspan's cutting advice is:
"Cutting should be carried out either by using a fine toothed saw, or by using a sharp knife to cut through the insulation and paper backing of the plasterboard, then snapping the board face down over a straight edge and cutting the paper facing of the plasterboard on the other side. Ensure accurate trimming to achieve close butting joints and continuity of insulation."
I am not sure I understand this. Presumably its necessary to cut through not just the insulation but part-way through the board itself, if one stands any chance of snapping it. I don't know how I would do that.
Please can anyone give me advice on the best way of doing this?
