If your melamine is lifting use a knife to lift back a little and squirt some glue down and clamp until dry. Then use wood filler to fill the chips, sand and paint, you can either paint whole cabinet or just touch up by blending in colours to matchyour cabinets. Another option would be to put a 2" wood border around the whole edge, this would update your cbinets to shaker style. Good luck.

How did you attach them?

I would fill the chipped edge with a little putty and then put some new trim on outer edges , either with finishing nails or some heavy duty double stick tape. Will up scale the look . Maybe some new door handles and it will look like you got new cabinets. Hope this helped.

Just a thought. Perhaps you can fill the chips in with wood putty and then sand and then paint the cabinets?

Wow, LIsa, I never tried fixing melamine chips, but if it were ME, I'd probably visit a hardware sotre (or a big box store) and ask for some sort of putty filler to use, then lightly sand it when dry, and paint it a color to match your cabinets as closely as possible. Here is a link with some suggestions from other folks.

Good Luck, and thanks for coming to Hometalk for answers :)

The plastic and melamine edging you attempted to attach, how did you attach them?
