Why Choose Our Edge Banding for Your RV Table?

Easy Application: Our edge banding is designed for easy application, even for DIY enthusiasts with limited experience. The adhesive backing ensures a strong and secure bond.
Cost-Effective Solution: Investing in high-quality edge banding from the start saves you from costly repairs and replacements down the line.
Environmentally Friendly Options: We are committed to sustainable manufacturing practices and offer eco-friendly edge banding options made from recycled materials.

Tools and Materials You'll Need:

Before you begin, gather the following tools and materials:
Our high-quality edge banding (ensure you've measured your table edges accurately)
Iron (preferably a low-temperature iron with a steam function)
Utility knife or sharp blade
Scraper (a plastic scraper is recommended to avoid damaging the surface)
Sandpaper (fine grit, like 220 grit)
Measuring tape
Pencil
Clamps (optional, but helpful for larger tables)
Protective gloves
Clean cloth or sponge
Edge banding trimming tool (optional, but highly recommended for a clean finish)

Step-by-Step Installation Guide:
Preparation: Clean the table edges thoroughly to remove any dust, debris, or old adhesive. Ensure the surface is dry and smooth before applying the edge banding.
Measuring and Cutting: Measure the length of each table edge and cut the edge banding accordingly, adding a few extra inches for overlap. A sharp utility knife or specialized edge banding cutter will give you the cleanest cut.
Applying the Edge Banding: Peel back a small portion of the adhesive backing on the edge banding. Align the edge banding with the table edge, ensuring it's straight and flush. Gradually peel back the remaining adhesive backing as you press the edge banding firmly onto the table edge.
Ironing the Edge Banding: Using a low-temperature iron (avoid high heat!), carefully iron over the edge banding. This activates the adhesive and creates a strong bond. If your iron has a steam function, a light mist of steam can help with adhesion.
Trimming the Excess: Once the adhesive is set, use a sharp utility knife or an edge banding trimming tool to carefully trim away the excess edge banding. Work slowly and deliberately to avoid damaging the table surface.
Scraping and Sanding: Use a plastic scraper to remove any remaining adhesive residue. Lightly sand the edges with fine-grit sandpaper to smooth any imperfections.
Finishing Touches: Clean the table surface with a clean cloth. Apply a thin coat of furniture wax or sealant (optional) for added protection and shine.

Troubleshooting Tips:

If you encounter any difficulties during the installation process, here are some helpful tips:
Bubbles: If you see bubbles forming under the edge banding, gently pierce them with a needle and smooth them out with the iron.
Uneven Application: If the edge banding isn't applied evenly, carefully remove it and start again. Ensure the surface is clean and dry before reapplying.
Adhesive Residue: Use a suitable adhesive remover to remove stubborn adhesive residue. Always test the remover on an inconspicuous area first.

We hope this guide helps you achieve a professional-looking finish on your RV table. Remember, using high-quality materials like our edge banding is crucial for a long-lasting and aesthetically pleasing result.
