Clean cuts on laminate

[TiggerToo]

How does one achieve them? I mean, in particular, how do you get a clean 90 degree cut (with the angle inside)... what tools does one use?
Scenario: laminate on ply e.g. floor boards.

I was shown (by a chippie) to use a router to do the same job. The laminate was first cut slightly oversize, bonded to the ply, then trimmed with a rolling bit. Obviously the boards themselves need to be true for this to work.
Sorry, didn't do inside corners, but I imagine the router would work, followed by careful dressing down.

Routed laminate edges are very sharp: take off the edge with a light sand.

Mark the laminate and cut slightly oversize as said. Then clamp it to a straight edge with the marks level with the straight edge. Then use a fine file always pushed away from you to trim the edge to perfection. Or use a router.

Trying to use a hand held laminate trimmer from B & Q works well on Contiboard or Formica but usually produces tearout if working across the grain on wood laminate so I cut the board slightly oversize and use either the circular saw (having taped the edge) with a fine tooth blade or, as macd says, the router with a trimming bit. It can be done with a very sharp blade and sanding block but takes time. Do a google for trimming wood laminates and you may come up with utube ideas.

This is what I use to cut laminate to slightly over side.

After glueing to the substrate the trim to size with either a router/laminate trimmer or sharp plane.
