Applications & Usage
Application Filter
Bath|Countertop|Kitchen|Furniture
Installation
Installation varies depending on application. Carbide-tipped saw and router blades should be used for cutting. Use the tool at high speed and feed slowly. To avoid cracking|radius all corners. Edges should be routered smooth. Refer to Spec Sheet attachment for additional information
Recommended Adhesive
Wilsonart® H20 Contact Adhesive works well in postforming applications. Use Wilsonart® 1730/1731 Contact Adhesive for non-postforming applications. Wilsonart® PVA Adhesive is ideal for bonding decorative laminate to wood substrates|in cold press|hot press|and postforming applications. For best results|apply adhesives at temperatures at or above 65 degrees F. Adhesives are UL GREENGUARD Gold Certified|quality for LEED points|and comply with SCAQMD and OTC regulations.
Suitable Substrates
Not structural — must be bonded to a suitable substrate such as particleboard|MDF|or plywood (with at least one A-face). Not recommended for direct application to plaster|concrete walls|or gypsum wallboard.
