    Need advice on adhesive used to adhere new panels to end gables.

    Hi All,

    I'm replacing all doors and end gables on a kitchen. I Veneered some 1/4 particle board panels to match the doors, and these need to be attached to the existing end gables of the original cabinets.

    The panels have some warping and I need to stick them flat but I don't have the ability to apply pressure while the adhesive dries.

    I'm certain Contact Cement would work but prefer to use something from a CALKING GUN.

    Any suggestions? I need instant and permanent bond so the panels won't spring back.

    Thanks!

    Thanks Tom.

    I wanted to try powergrab but couldn't find it for sale around here.

    I used contact cement and it worked perfect.

    Thanks!

    Be sure to report back when they fall off, Joel.

    I hope they don't but contact cement in a moisture laden area like a kitchen...might not last. Then again, it may last just fine.

    Did you know SMC is user supported? Please help.

    So all those counter tops fail over time
