I'm in the process of a fitted kitchen which is not having tiled splashbacks. Instead we have a jamocha laminated mdf sheet to match worktops. I have not used this before and would like some advice Please.
Best adhesive?
Window Corners & cill ? do i treat this the same way an edging strip in tilig? Reveals aint exactly sq neither.
On a straight run of wall units, is it better to let units overlap backer board, packing out top brackets to suit?
Sealant?.

Your Advice & Tips are much appreciated. :salute:

last time i fitted some i used mega grip adhesive from tool station.
cut to the under of the wall units and for the tops/corners you get a colour matched trim like tile trim.
for butt joins i routed both edges for a good fit and aded a little glue on the join,

the last set of backer i got was cupped so just check them and watch how you store them

Cheers speed, i sandwiched them between worktops when kitchen was delivered to ensure theyre flat as a pancake
