Materials and Tools Required* PVC edge banding
* Utility knife or edge banding trimmer
* Measuring tape or ruler
* Mitre box or angle cutter
* Sanding block or sandpaper
* Tack cloth

Step-by-Step Cutting Instructions1. Measure and mark the length: Determine the length of edge banding required for the surface you're covering. Use a measuring tape or ruler to accurately measure and mark the desired length on the edge banding.
2. Use a utility knife or trimmer: For straight cuts, a sharp utility knife can be used. Hold the edge banding firmly against a straight edge or use a mitre box for precision. If you're working with large quantities or complex cuts, an edge banding trimmer is recommended for speed and accuracy.
3. Cut at a 45-degree angle for mitered joints: For corners or edges that meet at a 90-degree angle, mitered joints are necessary. Use a mitre box or angle cutter to guide your knife and ensure precise 45-degree cuts.
4. Sand and clean the edges: After cutting, use a sanding block or sandpaper to smooth any rough edges and remove any burrs or splinters. A tack cloth can be used to remove dust and debris for a clean surface.
5. Apply the edge banding: Once the edges are prepared, apply adhesive to the surface of the furniture and the back of the edge banding. Align the edge banding carefully and press it into place. Use a roller or clamp to secure the edge banding and ensure a tight bond.

Tips for Cutting PVC Edge Banding* Use a sharp blade or cutter to achieve clean and precise cuts.
* Secure the edge banding firmly before cutting to prevent movement and ensure accuracy.
* Practice on scrap pieces before making actual cuts to familiarize yourself with the tools and techniques.
* If you're cutting multiple pieces of edge banding, consider using a cutting template or jig for consistency.
* Wear safety glasses and gloves when cutting to protect yourself from debris and sharp edges.
* Clean your cutting tools regularly to maintain their sharpness and prevent damage to the edge banding.
