T molding is garbage

Pages: << < (2/4) > >>

CheffoJeffo:

If you have a hot glue gun (a craft gun works fine for me), try that -- you can do a bit at a time, it sets fast (makes it easier to get good results) and, should everything go to heck, isn't a big deal to pull back out.

Using a slower-setting glue could be problematic unless you get the t-mold securely and uniformly taped to the cabinet while it sets ... depending on the t-mold and fit, you could get ripples ... and you probably don't want to be pulling the t-mold out once the glue sets.

My $.02.

SirPeale:

Hot glue is definitely the way to go.  Sets up quickly - but not *too* quickly, and fills spaces nicely.

Guns are cheap, and so are the glue sticks.

knave:

I agree with the above...Go with the Hot Glue...Pick up a glue gun and glue sticks at any craft store...heck walmart or Target probably has them too.

i warm up the things im bonding with a fan heater, the glue gun glue sets that little slower ,gives you a few extra seconds.

as cheffo would say if he was from the north of england

ark_ader:

Has anyone tried P-Trim?

I use it on gatorboard and Foamboard, but should work nice with MDF. 

It just clips on, but the curves you will have to heat it with a hairdryer.
