Does Anyone Have Woodgrain Laminate?
« on: November 01, 2008, 07:26:37 pm »
I am restoring a Rally-X cocktail cabinet and can not find out where I can get woodgrain laminate.

I'm not referring to the vinyl laminate that Parts Express sells, but the kind of laminate you see a Home Depot, which is thicker and more durable.

The Home Depot in my area has laminate(by Wilsonart) but not the woodgrain.(One of the Cherry woodgrains is what I'm searching for).

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Go to www.wilsonart.com.  Anything you see there can be ordered through Home Depot or Lowes.

I have some samples of the stuff from Formica... it's pretty good as far as using a plastic laminate to to look like wood.

Of course, this guy could actually use real wood laminate if he wants.  In that case to go a woodworker's supply store.

Does anyone have any idea what specific wood grain is common for these cabinets?

(I am restoring a Rally-X cocktail game before I sell it).

Thanks.

Ok, I guess it doesn't matter, as long as I'm close. But going by the Wilsonart catalog I just received it is either "Rio 7947-07" or "Sanara 7932-78"

(Home Depot doesn't have it, but I can order it special and it would be over $70 for an 8' x 4' piece. And they don't have the means to cut it, so getting it home wouldn't be easy).

Formica 8x4 sheets come rolled up in a box you can put in a regular car.
