I had a great experience with http://www.t-molding.com
Shipping was fast and inexpensive. I'm in Latin America, since shipping is usually more expensive and takes longer than  to europe I guess you wont have a problem with them.

This is stuff they use to finish inexpensive desk furniture.  It will give the cab a more finished look.  It will also be cheaper.

You are more likey to find edge banding in a hardware store. The problem with that stuff is that it won't protect the edge's like t-moulding does. I know home cabs dont get as many knocks as a cab on location but t-moulding does help protect the cab as well as make it look more authentic looking.

I can imagine that edge banding showing any uneven part of the cabinet edge as it is so thin whereas t-moulding is a little more forgiving.

Im in the UK and have ordered from t-moulding.com a few times and shipping to europe is really fast.

A cab just doesn't look right without t-molding imho.
