Hi, I bought some kitchen cupboard doors from eBay but the laminate is slightly loose.

They are a discontinued size for a rental property so I want them to last.

I’m wondering whether to just try to iron it to activate the glue?
There isn’t much of a gap so otherwise maybe a thin epoxy glue I can spread with a thin blade might work?

Any ideas please?

I used clear CT1 and a weight on it overnight to glue down.
You can also use quality PVA.

Don't use solvent or super glue as it will melt the vinyl.

Really damaged doors you can sometimes get a match off eBay or online supplier.
My discontinued doors from Howdens are sold on eBay
 
As per @Wayners post. I once tried super glue. I melted the vinyl.

I haven't tried a heat gun though.

My mum has a number of panels that have started to delaminate. One edge, I temporarily glued down with my nicotine gum...
 
Heat will remove vinyl , probably why they are loosing it , typical damage when toasters, air fryers, kettles are used under cupboards .
