  • a preferred sequence for manufacturing such finishing profiles it is started from a full slat of the material of which the body 10 shall be formed. This means that the rear side of said slat is not yet provided with the final profile and preferably is still flat.
  • said first incision 22 is performed, for example, by means of a rotating saw tool.
  • the encasing takes place by means of the layer-shaped covering 13 or a partial layer thereof.
  • the rear side is profiled or milled, whether or not until the final profile is obtained.
  • the final profile is obtained at least substantially in this treatment.
  • the finishing profiles possibly can be cut to length. Whether or not after such cutting to length, said second incision 23 is realized.
  • the principle of the first aspect is in particular applicable with each profile which usually has to be provided with a mitre and primarily can be applied with skirting boards 4 or with transition profiles.
  • the invention is not restricted to finishing profiles for floor coverings, but can also be applied, for example, with window and/or door frames, furniture profiles and the like.
  • Figure 12 represents another illustration of a finishing profile with the characteristics of the second aspect of the invention mentioned in the introduction.
  • this relates to a finishing profile, in this case a skirting board 4, which substantially consists of a body 10 encased by a decorative layer-shaped covering 13.
  • the body 10 substantially consists of a moisture-sensitive substrate 26, for example, of MDF or HDF, however, at the surfaces 27 thereof which are intended to be directed towards the floor covering 1 , namely at the underside thereof, the profile 4 shows portions 28 of a water-resistant material.
  • the decorative layer- shaped covering 13 extends uninterruptedly at least over the transition 29 between the portion 26 of water-sensitive material and the portion 28 of water-resistant material.
  • a recess 17-18 or incision 22-23 preferably relates to a slot or groove with a width of 0.4 to 2 millimeters, or still better between 0.5 to 1.3 millimeters.
  • Such recess 17-18 or incision 22-23 preferably forms an air gap in the body 10, however, possibly can be filled partially or entirely with filler, such as a hot-melt glue, a polyurethane or the like.
  • filler such as a hot-melt glue, a polyurethane or the like.
  • the advantages of the invention will be maintained, for example, in respect to the separability of portions and the applications of the internal boundary surfaces 21.
