Nail Sets
Print VersionBookmarkEmail this page to a friend.
Give your molding or finish work a seamless, professional look. Here' s how: Be sure to use finish nails or smaller brads for this kind of work. Be careful not to "divet" the wood by hammering too much. Tap gently with a nail set to sink the nail heads below the surface of the wood, hide the holes with wood filler and sand when dry for a smooth finish, ready for paint or stain.
