J-Cap Moulding Staircase Trim:
Most skirt boards used in staircase renovations or new home construction jobs is a high grade
veneer face, solid core 3/4 in. plywood which shows the exposed edge of the plywood side. Even
With solid skirt board you still get edge grain showing. The J-Cap Moulding is used like a mini
nosing to cover ( cap ) this unfinished edge, thus giving a finished look to this otherwise raw
edge. So if you have 32 feet of skirt board, you will need approx 36 feet of J-Cap Moulding for
proper coverage.
Now that you have the edge of the skirt board problem solved you may ask, how do I hide any
drywall dips that run up the side of my wall. The answer is very simple, you run the Ogee Cove
Moulding on top of the J-Cap and pin nail this in place allowing the Ogee Cove Moulding to
contour to your drywall. There you have it, all drywall dips are hidden and a finished look of
perfection is present.
