Cornices Traditionally, elaborate cornice moulding was either made from moulded plaster, or from solid wood such as Oak, then cut to fit around the room.
For a time Paint Grade Pine or Poplar were also a popular choice because any gaps could be filled then covered with paint, whereas flaws in stainable solid wood moulding are harder to mask.
Today’s easy to install, MDF mouldings are easier to finish and offer a variety of decorative profiles.
MDF is less condusive to warping and expansion because it has no grain, it also costs less than finger jointed paint grade wood. Elite Moulding has taken this a step further with EliteTrim?„?.
