Browse Forums Kitchen Corner 1 Mar 27, 2011 6:08 pm Hi I am having white gloss vinyl wrap panels as the backing behind my cupboards under my breakfast bar. The ones they have delivered have edging on the sides of the panels, not the same wrapped finish as the cupboard doors. This is the same for the side that is the end of the cabinets. In my current house all these panels are done with vinyl wrap as well. What are yours like? I have attached a picture of what my edges look like.

Infact they are a poor finish even for an edgebanded melamine board - there are what looks like obvious cutting chip marks on the board itself and that edging looks like it has been put on by hand. The fabricator might have been treating the back of the bar as a high traffic area and wanted more durable board/edging because of that - which doesn't really speak of confidence in the vinyl, but regardless, you should have been informed about this as well as having the fact detailed in your contract/schedule and on the construction drawings of the kitchen. Cheers, Earl Re: Question for those with vinyl wrap 3Mar 27, 2011 10:42 pm Thanks so much for that Earl. I didn't think it was vinyl wrap - but couldn't work out what it was. It does very much feel like melamine (thanks for the name!) - and my addenda states vinyl wrap - so I am not happy with my company right now. I really appreciate your feedback.
