🔍 Yes, that’s one of their primary uses. Flush trim bits are excellent for trimming plastic laminate (Formica) on countertops – typically you’d use a bit with a bottom bearing in a handheld router to flush the laminate to the substrate. For veneers on plywood, a down-cut spiral flush trim is especially good for trimming things like edge banding or laminate without chip-out on the top surface:contentReference[oaicite:51]{index=51}:contentReference[oaicite:52]{index=52}. SpeTool even offers down-cut flush trim bits which are great for trimming things like veneered plywood or laminated panels from the top without splintering. The general approach: glue your laminate or veneer on, then run the flush trim bit so the bearing rides on the core and the cutters trim the overhang perfectly flush. You get a factory-finished edge. Just go steady and use a sharp bit to avoid any burning on laminate; carbide flush trim bits stay sharp when dealing with these abrasive materials.
