Coverage & How Much You Need:
A 48 x 96 in. sheet covers 32 sq ft and a 60 x 144 in. sheet covers 60 sq ft; compact panels cover the same areas. Plan tops, edges and splash pieces on paper first so the chosen sheet size minimizes waste.
Fit and Compatibility:
Match tops, edges and cabinet ends across the 7987 Palisades Oak design in 107, 350, 335 and 568 grades; compact panels stand alone without a substrate while bonded HPL needs particleboard or MDF plus contact adhesive. Backer laminate sold separately.

A: Use flat particleboard or MDF with contact adhesive and a backer sheet on the underside.
Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
For worktops, the 1/2 in. compact panels give you a substrate-free option with finished edges, while 107 Standard over particleboard is the classic build-up method. If you postform, order 350 grade in a length covering the deck plus edge drop and radius. Balance every HPL-faced top with backer sheet, and stagger seams away from sinks and cooktops.
Wear gloves and eye protection when machining laminate, and carry large sheets flat with a helper to avoid cracking.
