Been lurking for a while and signed up a few weeks back but this is the first post.
Foolaround with DIY a bit and am currently in the final stages of redoing a demonstration / display kitchen to replace our 10 yo less than grea kitchen. The project as grown in that we have put in a big new window with side louvers and then decided to cut out most of the stud wall between kitchen & dining room to open the area way out. Also jackhammered up the slate floor in the kitchen to lay a light colour tile rather than the dark slate.
First question is quite simple ( ?) - as we are having the "new" kitchen doors & draw faces repainted ( 2 pack ) I am having to replace the carcase edge trim. The existing trim is in top condition for the most part , so can I just iron the new trim over the old or should I shave the old off first so then applying direct to the chipboard edge ?
Had a look through the archives, but nothing leaps out.:( .Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks for a good AUSTRALIAN based forum :2tsup::2tsup:
