    One more veneering questions

    I am veneering my Statement Monitor and 2RCC build and have a questions. I am using contact cement based on the recommendation of the shop that sold me the veneer. It is all going reasonably well, except that I am getting a little lifting on some of the corners. It's not major, just a little at a few of the corners. I tried to push them down but they are not adhering. What should I use to get the corners to stay down? I could inject some more contact cement or I could just use wood glue or something else.

    Thanks for any advice,

    Matt

    I've always used contact cement and never had a lift problem. Don't skimp on it, especially near edges and corners. I'd recommend injecting contact cement rather than mixing in water-based wood glue. Post pics of your finished veneeer.

        Thanks - I found another corner that didn't adhere well. This is only my second attempt at veneering so it is still a huge learning process. I did buy a trim router though and it makes it quite a bit easier than trying to manage the full size router. I'll try to post pics later today on my build thread:

        I have decided to build a couple of Statement Monitors and a Statement 2RCC Center so I thought I would start a dedicated thread to chronical my build and get some questions answered. First off, I am making some slight changes to the cabinet designs in that I want to put a slight (6' radius) bend in the sides to blend with a
