A beautiful embellishment to your home decor!
WoodUbend mouldings are heat bendable appliqués. They are used to embellish just about any plain surface such as wood, glass, MDF, books, and more!
These lightweight mouldings can be moulded to any contour, with the help of a little heat from a simple hair dryer or heat gun. They have all the properties of wood, so they can be drilled, stained, painted, sanded, and varnished.
PLEASE NOTE: Don’t try to bend your applique without warming it with a hair dryer first, as it might break.
Step One:
Before applying any glue, place your applique on your project and warm it. Even if your project and your applique both look flat, heating the applique will allow it to mold to the surface. Let it cool so you can handle it.
Step Two:
Use a good quality wood glue to adhere the molding to your project. Apply glue to the back of the molding and press it down gently. If some of the glue oozes out, wipe off excess with a q-tip or cloth.
Step Three:
Warm your applique again with the hair dryer as you are gently pressing it on. This is especially important if you are applying to a curved surface as your molding will become flexible again.
Step Four:
When the glue is dry, you can sand the edges of your molding if you need to. Be sure to blow the sawdust away before painting.
All done!
