End
Panels:
- Start
by applying the cut-to-size
plywood to the cabinet end panels. Apply wood
glue to the back of the plywood (Figure 1), then fit it to end
panel, making sure it is flush with the cabinet front and bottom
(Figure 2)
- Use
finishing nails to secure cut-to-size plywood to cabinet end panel
(Figure 3).
- Using
sanding block with 150 grit sandpaper, sand the edges of the
plywood to ensure that it is flush with the cabinet's front frame
(Figure 4). Use a clean tack cloth to remove the sanding dust.
- Check
entire cabinet for areas where unfinished wood is exposed, such as
along the sanded edges of the plywood, and seal the edges (Figure
5).
Self-Adhesive
Coverings:
- With
a sharp pair of scissors or razor knife and straight edge, cut
the self-adhesive covering into strips 1/2'' wider and 2''
longer than the face frames you plan to cover (Figure 6 and 7).
