What happens here

After completing the main bends, inspect the flashing for any areas that require fine-tuning. Use tin snips to carefully trim excess metal, create small notches, or make relief cuts that allow the flashing to conform perfectly to the contours of the window frame and the surrounding house wrap. This step is critical for a professional and watertight installation.

Goal: Use tin snips to make any final intricate cuts or trims on the metal flashing, ensuring a perfect custom fit for the window opening.
