Browse Forums DIY, Home Maintenance & Repair 1 Sep 25, 2017 7:36 pm Can anyone tell me how I can fix moisture damaged chipboard? I have a wall unit, some of the base of which has expanded (it's in a dry area - the cat sprayed on it!!!). Pictures attached. I'm tossing up between a wood glue or builder's bog. Any steps to take would be helpful too - e.g. do I need to sand back first? do I need to put something heavy on it to ensure once the glue/bog is put on it sets level? I want to be able to paint over it afterwards too. Any help would be great Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: Chipboard wall unit repair 2Sep 25, 2017 10:25 pm In short, you can’t.
