Materials Required:

New edging strip
Iron or heat gun
Trimmer or utility knife
Adhesive (optional)

Steps:

1. Preparation:

Remove the damaged edging strip by carefully prying it off with a trim cutter or utility knife.
Clean the exposed surface of the wardrobe to remove any dust or dirt.
Measure the length of the exposed edge and cut the new edging strip accordingly.


2. Applying the Edging Strip:

Apply a thin layer of adhesive to the back of the new edging strip, ensuring even distribution.
Align the edging strip with the exposed edge of the wardrobe and press it firmly into place.
Use an iron or heat gun to apply heat to the edging strip, applying pressure as you go. This will activate the adhesive and create a strong bond.


3. Trimming and Finishing:

Once the adhesive has cooled, use a trimmer or utility knife to trim any excess edging strip that extends beyond the edge of the wardrobe.
Sand the trimmed edges lightly to smooth out any rough spots.
If desired, apply a clear sealant or finish to protect the new edging strip and enhance its durability.

Additional Tips:

For best results, use an edging strip made of the same material as the original strip. This ensures compatibility and a seamless finish.
If the edging strip is particularly thick, you may need to use a router to create a groove to accommodate it.
Be patient and take your time during the repair process to achieve the desired outcome.
