What this video covers

Edgar and Sâmia apply laminate (fórmica) to the interior cabinetry and navigation station of their boat to finish the pilot house and living area.0:02 The process involves creating paper templates for each bulkhead and cabinet door to maximize material usage, as the specific laminate color is limited.3:43 Before application, the crew removes surface imperfections from the wood substrate to ensure proper adhesion.0:15 They apply contact adhesive to both the laminate and the wood, allowing a 15-minute curing time before bonding the surfaces.12:34 After bonding, they trim the edges and apply edge banding to all exposed plywood sides.13:39 The project includes installing custom structural supports and LED lighting channels within the navigation desk area.2:21 While the main cabinetry is complete, the crew continues to refine the finish with final filing and edge-banding on smaller components.16:05 They are currently deciding between a solid beige or a wood-grain finish for the remaining trim pieces to optimize interior visibility and aesthetics.19:08
