This happens because the plastic shrinks a bit when it gets warm, kind of like shrink wrap. Very similar plastic edging, T shaped and designed to press into a saw kerf, is available at stores that serve cabinet makers and other serious woodworkers (not a regular home center or lumber yard). Is is usually available in several colors. ----- Original Message ----- > This is probably a not-often-asked-for item, but the Westfalia gray > plastic (rubber?) moldings on many of my cabinets appear to have shrunk > in size, in that they no longer extend over the length of the corner, > joint, or door aperture as they originally did/were supposed to.
