Attaching baseboard to metal studs

12/13/2001 08:06 AM mercabin

I've removes the cove molding and glue from my condo walls. I've finished patching & painting the area & would now like to install a smaller baseboard using screws (NO ADHESIVES!) I purchased trim screws with the small square drive that is used for installing baseboard to metal studs but I'm not sure how to use them Also, the box didn't say self tapping. Do I need to pre drill the holes & counter sink? What type of drill bit do I use to do this? What kind of problems can I expect?

Thanks,
Mike
