Abstract: A tool and method applies a cover to an item receiving face. A base plate has an item receiving surface. A moveable lower plate has a die bore corresponding to the cover receiving surface of the item and a receiving surface for a laminate cover material having an adhesive layer and a decorative base layer. An upper plate includes a channel corresponding with the lower plate die and a punch secured within the upper plate channel and slideably engageable within the die. The punch has a centrally located bore and cutting edge. A compressible member disposed within the punch bore has a curvolinear free end. The upper plate is displaced towards the lower plate in a closed state to slidingly engage the punch within the die and the punch cutting edge punches out the cover while the compressible member presses the cut cover onto the item receiving face.
