Cap molding for mdf panelling

mickydcork · 2012-07-24 13:39:28

Hi I've just installed some mdf t&g effect panelling (wainscoting) in my bathroom. I'm looking to put a nice finish to the top edge. It is usually done with what it called a cap molding. Has anyone any ideas where I might source this, or some alternatives that would do and look nice? thanks Mickyd

Depending on the thickness of the panel you could get a few lengths of 2" or 2 1/2" x 1" and put a bullnose on the front edge. 1" would be very thick for this so you may need to thickness it down to 3/4". Another moulding can be placed underneath this onto your panel to thicken it up and make it look like one large moulding.
