Measure and mark the length of edge banding you need for each side of the workpiece. Add 1 inch to each measurement to allow for overlap at the miter joint.
Cut the edge banding to the desired length using a miter saw or miter box. Be sure to set the saw or miter box to a 45-degree angle.
Apply a thin layer of contact cement or other adhesive to the mitered ends of the edge banding. Allow the adhesive to dry for a few minutes, or according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Align the mitered ends of the edge banding and press them together firmly. Use a clamp or weight to hold the joint in place while the adhesive dries.
Once the adhesive has dried, sand the miter joint smooth using sandpaper or a sanding block. Start with a coarse grit sandpaper and gradually move to a finer grit until the joint is smooth and flush with the surface of the workpiece.

By following these steps, you can easily miter plastic wood veneer edge banding to create a professional-looking finish on your furniture projects.
