Would this work on a metal file cabinet if I sand it first? This has to be easier than contact faux stainless contact paper.

yes it should. i've used it on metal surfaces with success. i don't even think you have to sand it. try a small spot at the cabinet rear to check it out first.

It can be used as a sander, but I would not use it for wood cabinets. It would leave a lot of sanding marks. I would recommend that you use a random orbital sander for a fine, smooth finish on wood.

I didn't really understand your question. This is to apply vinyl to glass or walls for decor. If you are applying vinyl to the kitchen cabinets then yes it should work. I personally use repositionable contact paper for my vinyl projects. I hope this helps.

It should work. I've used it on metal, wood, plastic, concrete - - just about anything dry. It is not flexible however.

I really don't know. It has a fine metal file on one end and a ceramic finishing file on the other so I would imagine that you could--at least on the ceramic file. I haven't tried it, though. Sorry.

Yes, I think so. It has a standard kind of ready-to-use adhesive (no need to wet it or anything) that you just press into place, like any shelf paper. I will stick to plastic too, I'm quite sure. Good luck.

I believe that the work you describe would not be compatible with this diamond hand file set. They work great for jobs with a tight work surface which is what I bought the set for.

No. You want it to bond to the metal not the primer. Sand down the area and make sure both surfaces are clean.

No this is for sanding , you put it on a sander and then apply sandy paper to the face of the disc. we use it for sanding wood cabinets

I had a hard time putting it in to wood so I don't think metal is gonna work at all. Its not as strong as I had hoped so it is now my small job tool for touch ups mainly. I went and bought a real nailer.

Thank you for your question. Sandpaper is similar to a card stock so as long it is not coated with something there should be no problem with this going through it.

Yes. All we did was give our finished cabinets a quick scuff with sandpaper and then used the GF java and finished with a wipe on poly. After a couple projects with GF java we learned foam brushes give much better coverage. Good luck on your project.

I believe it would, however I would lightly sand the metal surface so the primer can better grip it. Otherwise I feel the paint could peel off too easily. Just make sure you properly prepare your surfaces, especially the metal.

I don't see why not if it's concrete, says you can use it for floors. My only concern when putting on the floors if you move heavy furniture you may scratch or tear it. yes it's a lot thicker than regular contact paper and if you use it for the floors, I would use a heavier glue than just pealing the back off as it may not stick long depending on your flooring. I have used this on the counters and also I covered a table with it. I hope this helps.

If you need something that will stick really well, no. Think of this as a huge "Post-It" note...the adhesive sticks fine, but is weak enough to be peeled off and re-posted. If you want contact paper, buy "contact paper"---the stuff sticks like cement!

Probably not. There are others I've seen that have a circle in the middle to screw then to a surface. I think that would be better for metal/hard plastic. Or remove the plastic and see if you can attach a felt pad the same way.

Sorry, I have only ued it on wood and look great on well sanded wood. I'm sure it would look good on metal as wel. Have used other colors of this product on metal and it is the only brand I Use in my shop.
