counter top laminate peeling

thanks! I can see how that could work. The laminate is worse than lifted, though. It's peeling and cracking on one corner. I'll give this a try but I may be back.  I appreciate the suggestion.

For laminate, contact cement is the proper glue to use. For repair of damaged spots though, that is much more difficult. When I worked at place that did a lot of laminates, contact cement was what was used. Brush it on, let it dry, then bond using the suggestions by Colt to use spacers to keep the parts apart until the contact cement dries to the right stage for bonding. The can will tell you how to use it. With contact cement, clamping is generally not needed once it is bonded. Just pressure with a good roller to make sure the laminate has made the best contact possible and all air bubbles are moved out.

If it was mine i replace the counter top with 3/4" plywood and flat work laminate with solid oak edging.
