Pre-glued edge banding is a great way to achieve a professional-looking finish on your woodworking projects. It's quick and easy to apply, and it can help to protect your edges from damage. In this video, we'll show you how to edge band with pre-glued edge banding.

What You'll Need* Pre-glued edge banding
* Utility knife
* Trimmer
* Sandpaper
* Iron or edge bander

Instructions1. Cut the edge banding to size. Measure the length of the edge you want to cover, and then cut the edge banding to that length.
2. Apply the edge banding to the edge. Remove the backing from the edge banding, and then apply it to the edge of your workpiece. Press the edge banding into place, making sure that it's flush with the surface.
3. Trim the excess edge banding. Use a utility knife or trimmer to trim the excess edge banding from the ends of the workpiece.
4. Sand the edge banding. Sand the edge banding to smooth out any rough edges.
5. Apply heat. Apply heat to the edge banding using an iron or edge bander. This will help to activate the glue and bond the edge banding to the workpiece.

Tips* Use a sharp utility knife or trimmer to cut the edge banding. This will help to prevent the edge banding from tearing.
* Apply the edge banding to the edge of your workpiece as soon as possible after removing the backing. The glue will start to dry quickly, so it's important to work quickly.
* If you're using an iron to apply heat, be sure to use a low setting. Too much heat can damage the edge banding.
* Allow the edge banding to cool completely before sanding it. This will help to prevent the edge banding from peeling off.

ConclusionEdge banding is a great way to achieve a professional-looking finish on your woodworking projects. It's quick and easy to apply, and it can help to protect your edges from damage. By following the steps in this video, you can edge band your projects like a pro.
