Hello all,
I have run into a problem with some veneer. I used the PVA glue method for the first time because I used a non-backed, quilted maple and didn't want to take the chance of contact cement bleeding through.
After applying what I thought was decent amount of Titebond to the veneer I let it set. I then placed both the substrate and veneer together and used a medium temp iron with protection to bond the two together. I trimmed the veneer accordingly, eventually had it sprayed for finish and left it alone for about two months. No problems as of yet.
This is a small dress panel for a pair speakers that were not completely finished. This past weekend I went ahead and bonded the dress panels to the main cabinets. No sooner did I bond these two pieces together when I noticed bubbles in the dress panel where the veneer had lifted from the BB ply underneath. I dropped a few F-bombs and resourced the internet for options. Wikipedia stated that I might be able to fix the problem just like I applied the veneer the first time around. I have tried reheating the veneer and applying pressure with no luck.
I does not seem to have enough glue to bond the two pieces together now. Do I have any options?
