ABSTRACT:
A water tight decorative molding comprising two elongate side strips joined by an outward facing intermediate elongate strip for sealing and protecting a joint formed by the intersection of two surfaces. A plurality of perforations extend from the outward facing intermediate strip into a cavity between the two elongate side strips, increasing the surface area to which caulking may bond. After a bead of caulking is applied to the intersection of the two surfaces, the molding is laid over the caulking and is then firmly pressed down along its entire length. By firmly pressing the molding to snugly fit between the surfaces, the caulking material fills the cavity between elongate side strips and the perforations, providing a water tight seal.
