If a wall is too long for one piece of trim to span the distance, you’ll need to create a scarf joint to extend the length of the trim work. Apply glue to the joint ends where they meet. Complete the installation by firing a nail directly through the joint and into the baseboard and wiping away excess glue. You’ll use 45-degree cuts for making corners and scarf joints.
