Formica or another material?
BUCKETHEAD:
I did this Saturday to my Hogan's alley cabinet.
I used Laminte from HOME DEPOT.
The $12.99 sheet should be enough to do your front.
I measured it,

Buckethead I like the way that looks. What type of glue did you use to attach the laminate? I'm hoping it's not contact cement, because I'd like to have more than 1 shot at getting it right if possible.
BUCKETHEAD:
Yes, I used Wilsonart contact cement.
In a big silver can. For $16.99
Don't be afraid to do this. It is not that hard.
This was my first time doing this, And i was thinking i could not acomplish it.
But you see the results.
It turned out pretty good for a first timer, At least i think?
If you want to just do the front? You won't need that big $50 sheet they sell.
You will just need the smaller $12.99 sheet they have.
They are in the same slot the big one's are in.
Also have an extra person with you, While doing this.
2 heads are better than one.
;)

$12.99 for a 2x4 foot sheet - ends up more expensive if you need a whole sheet of it. Our HD has it.
Dema, this vinyl covering that OSCAR used works well.
As another alternative, you might look at that Duraliner or Herculiner stuff that they use for brush-on truck bedliners could work too, if you can handle that look. Any auto parts strore should carry it.
