T molding is garbage
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.

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.
