Hi bro,

Have not done so for my present tank but I believe if you still need your cabinet to be at its present position, you can only remove and re-laminate the doors.

Cuz, lamination is best done of a horizontal surface so as to ensure that the surface will be even / flat. After lamination, the corners will still needs trimming and buff to ensure that there are no sharp edges.

HTH ;)

the shop I went to at Bedok Road has the stickers. They have like 4ft width and even thin stips for edging. lots of colours too. It's in a place called Changi Complex in the corner of Bedok Road & Bedok Walk. There is a Buddhist Temple along Bedok Walk. It's very near the corner of Upper Changi Road.

2. DIY Kalk Reactor - $25.00

3. Atman Protein Skimmer - $25.00
