Edge SupplyBirch 3/4 inch X 50 ft Roll of Plywood Edge Banding – Pre-glued Real Wood Veneer Edging – Flexible Veneer Edging – Easy Application Iron-on Edge Banding for Furniture Restoration

First time using this edge banding. Worked out well and went on easy. Appears to be sticking on well and was easy to iron on. Will definitely buy again when I’m out.

This is good quality edge banding. Pay close attention to the width measurement of the edge banding VS the width needed for your project. This edge banding is not ideal for 3/4” projects. If your an expert, you may be able to pull a 3/4” project off, but there is absolutely zero hang off (see photo). My project is 1/2” MDF I will be veneering in lays to for use as samples. This edge banding works perfect and the corners glue up seamlessly.Some reviews complain the glued together pieces are obvious or spaced too close together, making the edge banding difficult to work with, or unusable.1.) All edge banding this length will have many glued together pieces. There will never be a 250 foot tree cut and milled specifically to create edge banding.2.) Where this edge banding is glued together, it is a very wide zig zag, about 1” (see photo), and not obvious until you put the banding to your face and search for it. In the photo you can see the glue up on the raw edge banding. I had to get in some good lighting and tilt the banding at an angle to make the glue up obvious. After the edge banding has been glued & lightly sanded with a flat block (emphasis on LIGHTLY), using 400, 600, or 800 grit sand paper, its impossible to spot (see photo with my finger pointing to a glue spot that cannot be seen). The only issue you may have with the glue section being problematic is if you do not use something between your iron and the edge banding. If you apply banding with a lot of pressure, as with all banding, some glue may rise up to the surface. This can make the surface just sticky enough to catch film or dirt off of the iron...the dirt On the iron is the problem, not the edge banding. Recommend using wax paper between iron and banding for glue ups. When the wax paper has been used several times, replace it with a fresh piece.3.) I measured multiple areas to find the length between glue ups. My roll had glue ups, each one exactly as shown in the photo, around every 4 feet, pretty standard for this size roll.All in all, this is good quality edge banding at an exceptional value. The price of this edge banding will buy you 25’-50’ at the big box stores.RECOMMENDED

Easy to use, well wrapped for shipment

We used this to trim edges of plywood for a murphy bed. The width makes it great if you're using 3/4" plywood, as there is very little overlap. It was super easy to trim with a sander instead of the traditional blade. Irons on easily, works as advertised. If you have something that isn't completely square or anything slightly rounded, this is not very effective. You can manipulate it with painters tape or something similar to get really close though which is nice. Great product if you're applying to a perfectly flat edge, otherwise I'd probably stick to older glue on veneer.

The media could not be loaded. Everything came as advertised. The thickness was perfectly fine. The glue held up fantastic. I actually had to reheat a section of it and take it off of my project and then reheat it and apply it and it went back perfectly with no problems. The color is great and consistent I could not have asked for anything better. The product did have one seam in it which I consider acceptable in a 50 ft length. It was in the last two feet of the product which was not really an issue for me. Highly recommend.

Good product. Doesnt burn when you adhere it. Make sure to use a roller!

Update:At this point we have used 5 rolls (and need another). The quality is very good and the glue still has had no issues pulling or moving. We use it on Grade a/b plywood. On inexpensive plywood (home depot 30$ a sheet stuff) we have had to ... slow down...and take our time with the glue but it always sticks. (ie get it very hot and force the glue into the wood pores with the edge of a piece of wood). We have seen some "short splices" in the 3 foot range. Both those items are very picky as I have seen 200$ a roll edge banding that doesn't perform as well as this. We are very happy with this product. And Hope it sticks around for a long time.Original review:We have used a roll and have another on order. The veneer itself is of good quality. We have seen virtually no pitting or joints in it. It stains well and accepts paint well. We have generally been applying it directly off the roll without straightening. (you can use the edge of a table to take the bend out of veneer like this) When applying it has a tendency to wander a little more then other edge banding we have used but it is easily heated and adjusted into position so really this is a non issue.Edge trimming works as you would expect. We have only had the cabinets that are made using this product in service for a short time so I can not comment on long term adhesion/quality. But there are no indictions of it pulling or moving yet. All in all a good product for a good price.

Pros-looks good-glue is strong and easily melted with an ironCons-the tape is dead on 3/4 in, so your alignment has to be dead on unlike other tape with a bit more width allowing for some slight misalignment to be cleaned up by trimming the tape after ironing on
