Vinyl Wrap Kitchen Doors Bubbling

Kitchen wrapping is often criticised due to peeling and bubbling issues that arise.

If one cabinet is peeling it s more than likely the rest are also going to start peeling soon. There is only one option to repair vinyl kitchen cabinets to peel off the vinyl and paint the underlying mdf. This will eliminate those bubbles. If you re gluing down a bigger piece of vinyl then you ll need to use boards and c clamps on top to keep the pressure on the vinyl until the glue dries.

But if this is a kitchen wide problem you should consider replacing your cabinets entirely or installing new door and drawer front panels. Unless you have a pressing financial reason to choose repair for the entire kitchen you may want to save yourself the aggravation and start fresh with new cabinets. A few years ago we had our kitchen upgraded and recently we have noticed some bubbles forming on the doors and realise that this is because the glue has deteriorated and is the cause of the vinyl laminate has come away from the door is it possible for you to re glue the vinyl to the wood as we are reluctant to replace the door which is in good condition otherwise. This is because of the way in which vinyl wrapped doors are manufactured it s impossible to fix them.

If vinyl wrap scratches it is not possible to touch up the affected area and so the entire cabinet drawer will need to be replaced. On the other hand while vinyl wrap has been made tougher in recent years it is still more susceptible to scratches.
