The pole wrap consists of carboard backing that is covered in some type of MDF and then coated with very thin oak veneer that has flutes cut into the surface to make it flexible so it can be wrapped around round poles.

You are able to cut strips of the pole wrap simply with a box cutter since you only have to actually cut the carboard backing. Super easy!

I don’t have a table saw so I used my compound miter saw. You can either wrap the material into a roll and cut it or fold in half. I tried both. On a table saw you can of course lay it flat to cut.

Here you can see how I cut the material folded in half as well.

Before I started gluing my cut pieces to the drawers I made sure to wipe them with my trusty tack cloth. Dust and dirt don’t have a chance with these sticky wipes. I never refinish a piece of furniture without tack cloth.

Then I spackled on the glue with a spackling knife. This ensures that the glue is thin and doesn’t squirt out on the sides or seems too much.
