crown molding question- long piece, cut it but joined area hasbig gap

Hi, i just installed some crown molding in a room very long piece 25-35 feet. I had to cut it in two pieces.. The smaller piece where I cut it is like 2 feet... But when I join it, (like a puzzle piece) there is a pretty big gap there. Quite obvious, even when I paint it it will show, what should I do??? Here is a link for you to check out and see if it would work for you. I did this to the baseboards in the room I just finished and it looks great. I also had a large gap in one of the corner joints and used the caulk to fix it. It took a couple of applications for large gaps but it worked great. The key in choosing the right caulk is for it to be a blend of acrylic and silicone, you can paint or stain it, low shrinkage and use water clean-up. http://www.askthebuilder.com/716_How...seboards.shtml David |
