Can I use laminate flooring as kitchen plinth

[Gary111]

hi , I was thinking of using some spare laminate flooring as kitchen plinth(kickboard)

I realise it may bow a bit, but I could stiffen it or double up.
Would probably mitre the corners.
I can glue the leg clips on

Doesn’t need to look perfect.
Any reason why not I’ve not thought of ?

Can't think of one.
If it looks good, it looks good... go for it.

I did exactly that when I changed my cabinet doors....I left the original plinths on though, and used the laminate as a cover. Looks just fine!
