How to Glue Wood Edging
- 1). Clean the item that you'll be attaching the wood edging to. Remove any type of debris such as sawdust, grease or dirt. Wipe dust away with a damp cloth. For more heavily soiled items, clean with a solution of dish soap and water. Glue needs a clean surface for adequate attachment.
- 2). Spread a layer of yellow carpenter's glue over the surface of the wood edging that will attach to the object. Use a glue roller to coat the entire area and ensure adequate coverage.
- 3). Press the wood edging into place on the object.
- 4). Clamp the wood edging into place if possible. This helps to stop any shifting that may occur during the drying process.
- 5). Allow time for the glue to adequately dry before handling. Follow the directions on the package for specific drying time.
