one side of my cabinet came out perfect and there is no need for glue, however i wasnt as lucky with the other side. its a bit too wide and the tmolding doesnt stick in place. i tried crazy glue, its not working out so well.. any other ideas? i dont wanna use nails |

Hot glue gun should do the trick. |

Well, don't really know what is crazy glue, but still.. Hot glue? No way! Do NOT even try that solution if you want it to last! Done two (three but Tomatocade doesn't count..) small cabs with 16mm T-molding attaching the molding with glue instead of... I'm using (high quality ?) contact glue on my cabs. Works like a charm :) Just apply the stuff on both surfaces ..wait about 20 to 25 minutes ..attach the t-molding to the MDF and you're done. Won't come off without a hammer or a crowbar... Actually, Bison Tix (?) is what I've been using.. ( http://www.bison.net/US/en/index.do ). Something similar should work awesomely. Good luck :cheers: EDIT: PS. Some basic info on contact glue..: http://www.bison.net/upload/af993e0fc2c7dd2dc07ba2.pdf |

Crazy glue is Super glue.... definitely not a glue for such an application. Contact Cement is the way to go for sure. There is a lot of them out there, I'd recommend Titebond's Neoprene Plus if you can find it. There's a few contact cement spray adhesives out there too. Just use the method psychotech explained. |

I messed up a t-mold section of the contol panel I was doing. Unlike your problem it wasn't too wide, it was too low so adding the t-molding didn't fit perfectly. I simply refilled the area with bondo and re-routed it. It worked. You can try the same. |
