ya, i was wondering what was going on there. ive heard the word “lamination” but it means something completely different where im from.

wooden floors are laminated ( cheap pop n click stuff ), as are most pre fabricated chip boards ( ikea pc desks etc ). some mimic woodgrains and others are clear.
kitchen worktops are laminates.

when he said laminate, i just thought he had clear laminate heat wrapped around the bench.

thanks for clearing that up

ive gotten gym and library cards laminated, is it the same process?

i’ll be making some wardrobe doors soon and i’d like to re-create the glossy vinyl look that all pre-fab’d doors have these days. would laminating the doors after the paint has dried give me this effect ?

im finding more and more, that woodworking is actually the easy part and
getting the finish right is the hard part.

a finish makes or breaks.
