I bought an estate solid surface vanity top by rsi 22x61
the problem is I had to buy a 48 " vanity because the two side walls are only 57" apart.
so I have to cut the top down a few inches on each side
does anybody know how I can do this with this type of material?
what type of saw and blade should I use?

thank you for any help

A good fine-tooth carbide tip circular saw blade will work. Put masking tape on the finished side, and cut from the back side to minimize chips.
 
thank you

I will let you know how it goes in a week or so

countertop done

jimbo your advice worked out to be just right

used a 150 tooth 7"oldham circular saw blade to cut within a 1//4" of size and used a belt sander with 50 grit to finish it off ,no problem looks and fits perfect. oldham also makes a blade just for that material (solid surface, corian and rsi types ) they were out of stock on this one.
make sure you do this outside because of a lot of dust
and just put it on saw horses

thanks again for your help
