PLASTIC LAMINATE (FORMICA ®) VANITY TOP OR BACK SPLASH




PLASTIC LAMINATE (FORMICA ®) VANITY TOP OR BACK SPLASH: Plastic laminate is a sheet material comprised of a decorative paper bonded to several layers of resin-treated kraft paper then covered with a translucent, melamine-resin which becomes clear during pressing and curing. The resulting material is hard, durable, and resistant to water, alcohol, heat, and stains. Plastic laminates (the brand Formica, is probably the best known) are often bonded to particle board and plywood for use in furniture, countertops, wall coverings, and much more. This material can be burned and can be scratched but is resistant to stains. Cast iron wash basin "let-in" to floated tile. caulk should be put under the rim when the sink was installed. If leaks appear below the rim re-caulking is called for. A bead of caulk can be applied at the base of the rim where it meets the counter top.
