[@jaytee1888]

Great video. One of the first things I was shown how to do in a workshop. How much extra thickness on top of the thickness of the laminate do you expect? Or does the contact adhesive stick it tight to the ply?

[@watsonmeling1589]

Can i re-use the paint roller for next panel?

[@averagealice8877]

Awesome video. What brand contact adhesive are you using and what type of file you use at the end to sand the edges? Thanks.

Hi what brand of contact ur using thnks

[@yukiyuno3257]

Nice! I'm just wondering... If I wanted to laminate a bevelled edge piece like on the high gloss kitchen cabinate doors, would I still use this technique and fold it around or would I need a heat gun or is it completely different entirely?

[@antonstafeyev3606]

No you would need a thinner film and a vacuum press. Which you can make your self under 50$

[@khanhphaminh1175]

using spray paint method is better than laminate in beveled edges.

[@winyte]

Thank you. Is it required to keep weights on ply or put it in clamps after sticking?

[@AnvinArganosa]

Not necessarily. But putting weights could provide better adhesion.

[@RangerCaptain11A]

@@AnvinArganosa you use contact cement on both pieces -- once you put them together and press them, you're done.

[@patrykgorecki581]

Any idea how to wrap an edges?

[@glcaracena]

Do we need to sand the plywood surface before applying contact cement? Tnx

[@AnvinArganosa]

Not really. But it should be free from loose objects, oil, and dust.

[@genkidama7385]

there are special tools to trim the edges perfectly.

Hey the glue that you use do we need to add something into it?

[@AnvinArganosa]

No need. Use as it is. Hope it helps.

[@teravya1301]

Wonderful but sorry, the video should have inclusion of edge banding tape. Why ? Accurate finish of laminate edge is a technique, however that may be a waste of time if the edge band which is the integral part of finishing is not attended simultaneously.

[@allanstacruz8285]

Nice video sir, pero ok din po ang gumamit ng adhesive sticker s plywood?

[@AnvinArganosa]

Hindi ko pa po natry. Pero based sa feedback ng iba hindi po durable ang adhesive sticker compared sa HPL. Pero advantage naman is easy installation.

Salamat Kabaro sa tutorial, saan kaya pwede makabili ng laminate online?

Welcome kabaro. Di ko lang alam saan meron online. Sa wilcon o kaya sa CW home depot lang ako bumibili ng laminate.

[@arvincasapao8109]

Magkano po kaya ung ganyan lahat ganyan den po ung sukat

[@nicolecastro6748]

Hnd po b madaling matuklap pag handmade ang paglaminate s plywood.or mas ok gsmitin ung machine mismo ang naglaminate

[@AnvinArganosa]

Sa opinion ko po mas ok pa rin pag machine ang naglaminate dahil equally distributed ang pressure during lamination process compared sa manual. Pero for DIY purposes or small scale projects ok na rin ang manual as long as we follow the proper procedure of lamination.

[@signout5033]

boss matanong kloplang po ano po tawag dyan sa parang sticker na makapal na dinidikit ?? at mga sa magkano po kayayan

[@AnvinArganosa]

HPL o high pressure laminate po. Around 400 pesos ang white. Double price ang ibang kulay or may design.

[@ramrequina356]

Pwed buh e laminate yong flywood na may pintura na?

[@AnvinArganosa]

Pwede naman po pero not recommended. Pero kung need po talaga ilaminate ang plywood na may paint na siguraduhin lang po na hindi loose ang paint at dapat rough surface kaya need muna iliha.

[@ronaldc7408]

Sir ano ang brand ng plywood na gawin nyo at san kayo nakakakuha?

High Pressure Laminate po ang tawag sa material. Kasize po ng isang plywood. Pwede irolyo kaso kapag nasobrahan sa rolyo nabibiyak kaya alalay lang po. Around 400+ pesos ang white. Double price naman kapag may kulay or design.
