I’m looking to finish the back of a cabinet cheaply while maintaining a wood look on it, it’s to be a kitchen island with a butcher block top. The back of the cabinet is unfinished MDF.

I was thinking for simplicity I could use wood flooring pieces like this to finish it and just add corner trims, but wondering how I could glue it down to the back. Wood glue is probably out, but would liquid nails work?

    For the rubberized backing, construction adhesive like Liquid Nails Heavy Duty or PL Premium will definetly work - they’re formulated specifically for bonding rubber, vinyl, and similar materials to wood/MDF.
