Hi
I'm fixing some thin 2mm aluminium strip to chipboard.
On a test piece I've drilled holes and screwed it down, but the screw heads stand up a bit from the surface. It seems too much to get an angled hole and matching screen accurately screwed in so it fits flush. Is there better solution?
Can I simply glue the strip on? What glue? Will it last for years?
If interested it's for some kitchen drawers where the outer wood effect laminate has burnt off in places down the side edges next to the oven. This should be much cheaper than replacing the units or unit fronts and should act as a heat deflector in future.
Actually do you think it will look a bit odd with the edging down one side of the drawers and not the other side or other units?
Thanks
