Step 2
: For precise miters cut a support block 1 / " x 1 / ". Always wear safety glasses when
using miter saws, staple guns, or spray adhesive. To ensure accuracy, make the miter cuts
slowly. Typically a 90º inside or outside corner will require setting the miter saw to 45º. Most
corners are rarely a true 90º so you may need to adjust the angle and make some practice
cuts first.

the excess caulk.
