Edge Supply Maple 3/4 in x 50 ft Roll – Pre-Glued Iron On Wood Veneer Tape – Wood Veneer Edge Banding Tape with Hot Melt Adhesive, Smooth Sanded Finish Ideal for Furniture & DIY, Made in USA

Used this to edge maple plywood on a cabinet box I built. I had bought a cheap iron to heat it and press on the edges (comes with adhesive on the bottom). Worked well and easy to apply. Looked good, matched the plywood well. Would recommend it!

I built a buttload of cabinets with full-overlay doors, the second half of a big basement remodel I began a couple of years ago. Previously, I bought pre-glued edge banding form Rockler, which I applied to the exposed plywood edges using a household iron. It worked ok. It seemed secure enough, but after several months it began to separate in places. It's easy enough to re-heat it to re-bond it, but once you apply the finish, that's a no-go. You can secure it with wood glue, but it competes for space with the rubbery hot-melt glue, so it's difficult to get a clean glue line, so you kinda have to live with it. This stuff from Edge Supply is vastly better. First of all, the 3/4" width is as advertised, which leaves exactly 1/64" on either side of standard maple plywood, which I quickly knocked off with 150 grit using a random orbit sander. Second, it sticks and stays stuck. I though it was because I used a heat gun this time, but the leftover Rockler stuff, which I intended to use up, didn't work any better than it did with an iron, so I pitched it. Third, the glue line is virtually invisible (see first photo), compared to the other stuff, which kept coming unstuck (note the gap in the second photo). Worth mentioning is the plywood edge is straight off the table saw with no special prep. Bottom line: it works like it's supposed to.

My husband used this on a cabinet he was building and he loved it. He said it looked great and was easy to use. He easily got it to adhere using a heat-gun. He showed me the results and it was very impressive; it was hard to tell that it was a veneer, rather than just the regular wood-grain on the edge of the wood. For the low price, you can't go wrong with this.

The veneer is pretty thin... much thinner than the stuff I get from my local wood supplier. But, the color and grain were very consistent. The edge banding was very straight, making it easy to use, even on long edges. Some other brands I've used have had a notable curve (seemed straight on the roll, but when uncoiled, it curved notably to one side... like. warped board), making it a PITA to use. The adhesive is good and there is an appropriate amount of it (plenty for a good bond, but so much as to make a mess. It seems to bond very well. It's been a few months and there are no signs of delamination. Splices were not excessive and they were very discrete. In fact, I was shocked as to how clean the splices were. Most were difficult to see, unless you were really looking for them. Overall, it's a good product. I'd really like to see them offer an option with a thicker veneer... regardless, I will likely buy this stuff again.

This edge banding has been working fantastic!

I thought this banding was the best of the last four purchases I have made. I haven’t seen the large number of splices in this one that previous ones had. Don’t know if this purchase was a different vendor or not but it is working well.

I am building a set of drawers with 1/2" maple veneer plywood and used this edge banding in 3/4" to finish the top edges. I am thrilled with the results. Here is my installation process. I cut the banding a little long then I pressed it down with a travel iron (~$20 here on Amazon) set at about 2/3 its maximum temperature. It worked perfectly to activate the adhesive. Use a wood block to press down the edge banding while it is still hot. A minute or two later, longer is probably better, I used a putty knife to remove most of the excess on the sides. I have seen a lot of discussions online about using utility knives, chisels, files, and card scrapers to remove the excess, but this method worked very well for me. It takes a bit of practice (use a trial board or two first), but with the board on edge held in a vise hold the knife almost vertical, work it gently into the excess a half inch or so down the board, then still holding it almost vertical and at about a 10 degree angle away from the face of the board, run it down the edge to remove the excess. Come back the other way to remove the rest. The putty knife does not have to be that sharp, in fact it is better not too sharp to avoid damaging the board. After the excess is off the sides, sand off the remainder rounding over the top a bit. Only after removing the excess from the sides, fold the excess tabs at the ends down, tear the tabs off downward, and sand off the excess with downward strokes only to avoid pulling the banding off the board.

Excellent quality and consistent width throughout. Was able to use this across a large mud room reno that had a lot of exposed edges in the cabinetry design. Will absolutely continue to use this brand. Does not suffer from the issue some other brands have noted in their reviews re: inconsistent widths.

Great product, it does exactly as it should and for the money it’s amazing. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

Easy to install and trim.

First time I used this particular edge banding and I though it worked very well. Sands easy and the glue holds good.

facile a utiliser mince et colle tres bien
