Wood Door Edging Strip Color Change: A Comprehensive Guide197

As a leading wooden door edge banding manufacturer in China, we are often approached by customers looking to change the color of their wood door edging strips. While this may seem like a straightforward process, there are a few things you need to keep in mind to ensure a successful outcome.

1. The type of wood door edge banding

The first step is to determine the type of wood door edge banding you have. There are two main types: PVC and veneer. PVC edge banding is made from a type of plastic and is more durable than veneer edge banding, which is made from thin slices of wood. If you have PVC edge banding, you can change the color using paint or a heat gun. If you have veneer edge banding, you will need to replace it with new edge banding.

2. The condition of the wood door edge banding

The condition of the wood door edge banding will also affect how you change the color. If the edge banding is damaged or peeling, you will need to replace it before you can change the color. If the edge banding is in good condition, you can simply paint or heat it to change the color.

3. The color you want to change to

Once you know the type and condition of the wood door edge banding, you can start thinking about the color you want to change to. If you are painting the edge banding, you can use any color you want. If you are using a heat gun to change the color, you will need to choose a color that is compatible with the wood species of the edge banding.

4. The process of changing the color

The process of changing the color of wood door edge banding will vary depending on the type of edge banding and the method you are using. If you are painting the edge banding, you will need to clean the surface of the edge banding and then apply a primer. Once the primer has dried, you can apply two coats of paint. If you are using a heat gun to change the color, you will need to heat the edge banding until it reaches the desired color. Once the edge banding has cooled, you can apply a clear finish to protect the color.

5. Tips for changing the color of wood door edge banding

Here are a few tips for changing the color of wood door edge banding:
Use a high-quality paint or heat gun.
Clean the surface of the edge banding before painting or using a heat gun.
Apply a primer to the edge banding before painting.
Apply two coats of paint to the edge banding.
Heat the edge banding evenly when using a heat gun.
Apply a clear finish to the edge banding to protect the color.

By following these tips, you can change the color of your wood door edge banding quickly and easily.
