This is a first person view of removing Thermofoil from cabinet doors. This is how I handle the glue residue that tends to be left behind on the Fiber Board.
Always make sure that this procedure is good for your situation.
Always research any technique before you jump in or try it in a small area first to make sure!
I’ve worked making caravan internals for £20 + years. I cut all the doors and worktops all made with MDF. Don’t breath the dust in as it damages your lungs. Always wear the proper safety equipment when doing any job.
Great tip! Thank you! Pretty much everything a painter does is toxic to our health! If I don't have a mask on then it might be so that you can hear me while I am speaking.
Did no one else think that was salami?
That made me laugh!!
Yes
Only came here for the salami
I came for the gabagool. Thought all them nitrates would dissolve the glue.
Me 😂
Thank you so much, finally and answer I have been searching sine a long time ❣️🙏
Hello, You are very welcome! Happy to help.
It's cool that you do this. Thank you for the tips.
Thank you very much for the positive feedback.
Thank you from the UK
Awesome video. 🤙🙏
Hey! Thanks for the nice comment!
Not only do I have the exact raises panel doors but I had the exact same color thermofoil
Lucky you, lol
Me😂
Great job !
Thank you!
You are very welcome!
Hi, I have some thermofoil that's starting to peel away at the edges, do you know what type of glue is best to stick them back down? Many thanks
I have seen people try all types of glue, Then they call me to refinish them. So, I am not sure.
Thanks ! I’ll be honest , I have contact cement cleaner and lacquer thinner , but I’ll try your stuff first ( safer ). Fumes not as bad .
Absolutely, use what works best for you!! :)
I wear a respirator so maybe that would help you with the fumes too.
What do you do with the back or inside of the cabinet door? Can you just prime and paint over that?
Hello, Yes! Clean and Prime And Paint that also!
Denatured alcohol not available in my area. I have some mineral spirts on hand. Is that strong enough and a suitable replacement?
I'm sorry to hear that. I have tested out some Paint De-glosser it works very well.
I still cannot get the glue off of the cabinets. Any other ideas?

@@PinealPaintingLLC Thanks I still cannot get it off and have used a ton of denatured alcohol. These cabinets had a ton of glue but I don't want to ruin the MDF
@@MoonbootsJ What I do is clean them the best I can, then prime. After primer when you sand the primer you will be able to see if the bonding primer bonds properly or not. If you have a couple areas (usually the edges) where the primer fails after sanding then just sand those areas again really good. If the primer sticks then it sticks. No problem. If you want to re-apply primer to those areas where it didnt hold then you can do that and then I just spray the first coat of finish paint. You have to sand in between all coats of paint. Sanding will let you know if you have a good bond or not.
Awesome job but how about the base how do we get that off
I will make a video!
I miss denatured alcohol! It's no longer available here in California.
We would definitely welcome you to Florida if you moved here! :)
I'm sure they will come up with a water based denatured alcohol. i.e. water with a denatured alcohol smell. lol
Can the doors be stained after?
Hello, Wow, That is a fantastic question. I have no idea. I would like to test a MDF door out with stain if I could get my hands on some MDF.
Gel Stain might hold... There is no wood grain on MDF so I'm not sure what the over all outcome would be. If you dabble, let me know what you come up with.
@@PinealPaintingLLC ok thank you. I looked up another video and the guy on that one said you could but you would have to use a Mi wax pre stain then follow with a Mi wax gel stain… but his looked funky. So I don’t know how it would be.. yours look more professional!
@@anelrameiraminbad4055 Very interesting indeed! I have seen a painter use gel stain on a plastic door and make it look like wood. It was crazy awesome!
@@PinealPaintingLLC oh wow, I’m sure that looked awesome. In my previous comment I just noticed I said Mi wax, I mean Minwax sorry.
I seen a tool like a roller or something that is used to make MDF look like real wood it like makes a pattern of wood notches. It looks good. I’m trying to redo my thermafoil cabinets it’s all coming off but have a lot of sanding ahead of me. Thanks for responding to my comment I appreciate your help.
Why not use isopropyl alcohol which has the same properties as denatured alchohol which is ethanol with methanol. Denatured alcohol is no longer sold locally in big stores and has to be ordered online, inconvenient.
That is a great option for people who live in states like California who have banned a lot of things lately. Here in Florida, no problem obtaining Denatured so far. Great idea.
@@PinealPaintingLLC Not just Cali, i don't see it in any big stores online, and thus will not be on the shelves either here in the Carolinas. But yes i would have liked an explanation why is denatured alcohol (ethanol -methanol) better than isopropyl alcohol (so easy to find). My guess is that isopropyl alchohol can be more noxious and irritant to breathe but maybe DNA cleans glue better ? I read an article that you can use grain distilled alcohol higher than 150 proof 75% alcohol by vol (200 proof is 100% pure ethanol) but you have to be careful as the rest is water not good for mdf.
If there is glue residue on the door, and you prime over it, it will fail. Bottom-line. This is bad information. I've been painting cabinets for 25 years. You must remove all glue residue from the door. I can't believe the dis-information on these sites
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Please let us know what your company is, how to find it and please attatch a link teaching us how to remove that glue. That would be awesome, Thank you so much. I love learning from others!
and what if you cannot get it all off ???
@@MoonbootsJ lol. that was my point exactly. It doesn't come off completely. This guy has no solution only a negative comment. What I do is clean them the best I can, then prime. After primer when you sand the primer you will be able to see if the bonding primer bonds properly or not. If you have a couple areas (usually the edges) where the primer fails after sanding then just sand those areas again really good. If the primer sticks then it sticks. No problem.
