Gather Your Tools and Materials

* - Edge banding trimming router or hand trimmer
* - Sandpaper or sanding block
* - Tack cloth
* - Wood glue (optional)

Remove the Old Edge Banding

Using a sharp utility knife, carefully score the edge of the old edge banding. Slowly and gently pry it away from the substrate using your fingers or a thin pry bar. Be cautious not to damage the substrate or the surrounding wood.

Prepare the Surface

Use sandpaper or a sanding block to lightly sand the area where the new edge banding will be applied. This will help create a smooth and even surface for better adhesion.

Apply the New Edge Banding

If desired, apply a thin layer of wood glue to the back of the new edge banding. Align the edge banding with the edge of the substrate and firmly press it into place. Use a damp tack cloth to remove any excess glue.

Trim the Excess Edge Banding

Using an edge banding trimming router or hand trimmer, carefully trim away the excess edge banding that extends beyond the edge of the substrate. Ensure that the trim is clean and flush with the surface.

Sand and Finish

Sand the trimmed edge with sandpaper or a sanding block to smooth any rough edges. Wipe away any dust with a tack cloth and apply a suitable finish, such as paint, varnish, or sealant, to protect the new edge banding and enhance its appearance.
