What happens here

Even perfectly cut mitered corners can sometimes appear slightly open or feel sharp to the touch. To 'kill' this imperfection and create a smoother, more finished look, take a T15 bit (or any small, smooth, hard object) and wrap it in a soft cloth or towel. Apply gentle, firm pressure with the wrapped tool along the mitered edge, 'rolling' the corner. This creates a very subtle radius, making the joint appear tighter and providing a smoother feel, as if it were a single piece.

Goal: This tip provides a simple technique to smooth imperfect mitered corners on trim or paneling, making them appear seamless and preventing sharp edges.
