I am fitting new laminate kitchen worktops, instructions say to use worktop contact adhesive to stick the edge trim onto the exposed chipboard. is that the best stuff to use?
Elsewhere it also says, "It is recommended that any cuts, joins or exposed chipboard are re-sealed using clear silicone to prevent moisture penetration".
This would be ok if I was fitting a metal end trim but as I am using the laminate strip for the exposed end I don't think the contact adhesive would work if I put clear silicone over the end first. Would it?
The exposed end is nowhere near the sink of kettle, both are down the other end.
