How to Glue Wood to a Refrigerator
- 1). Measure the desired surfaces to be covered on the refrigerator. Make note of any cut outs for handles or water dispensers.
- 2). Cut the wood veneer panels to size with a table saw. Sand away any rough edges using 220-grit sandpaper to ensure the panels will not chip or break off in the future.
- 3). Clean the refrigerator with degreaser and a rag. Be sure to remove any dirt buildup on the front and sides of the refrigerator.
- 4). Apply adhesive to the refrigerator and panels using a sponge brush to even the adhesive on the surface. Add a thick layer of quick-grab adhesive to the surface of the refrigerator as well as the back side of the panel. Allow the adhesive to set for five minutes before attaching the wood veneer panels.
- 5). Firmly press the panels in place, lining up the bottom and side edges of each panel with the refrigerator edges to create a proper alignment with the panels.
- 6). Wipe away any excess adhesive with a damp rag.
