This step completes the addition of trim to the kitchen.
The first problem was that there was no lip on the cabinet in which to add molding.
I just set the trim pieces to the edge of the door right before it started rounding off.
This will assure the bond is firm.
Just make sure you are laying the trim pieces consistently across all doors.
I am thinking about doing this to our flat faced.
It wasn t an exact science but you really didn t noticed it at all once the doors were all hung.
For the rounded corners on my doors i did not fill the gap in.
There are lots of choices.
The frame measures the exact same size as the sides and front of the cabinet.
You can attach it to the edges around the perimeter or flat on the face of the door.
Then it s time to fill in all the holes and gaps with wood filler or spackling paste.
As the doors ended so did the top of the cabinet.
If trim is being placed on the cabinet doors that are lying flat the trim should be covered with a plastic wrap.
These are actually rounded too my husband was doubtful because of that reason but turns out you can t really tell.
I m so excited about this post i can t even tell you.
Adding trim to cabinet doors.
We built a frame that would sit on top of the cabinet and that we could attach the trim to the frame above the cabinet.
See the picture below for the before and after sanding.
Oh man you guys.
After 10 minutes press again.
Sand the mdf shaker cabinet doors.
Place a weight on it and leave it for 10 to 12 hours.
