    Aah, okay. So the oil will effectively cover the white filler and caulk or whatever (with various coats to cover) ....with the stain then sealing that in? I am not at all sure I'd be able to get the pens in to the crevices and angles were spindles meet baserail and top rail.

    Kitchen Cabinet Edging.

    I have to put some 18mm edging on the face edge of a kitchen cabinet/carcass. This edging isn't self adhesive or iron on. The old edge will remain, so this go on top of the existing. Does anyone have any ideas how to get this properly stuck on? Thanks John
