I've been on a number of large commercial projects where we used aluminum trim, and set up using miter saws with regular wood trim blades, the good carbide tipped( iguess carbide, just a good decent blade) turned straight(not backwards) and cut every bit of it like that. The trick is just to cut slow and straight, and as always, wear eye protection
