Just received a strip of veneer from Vale Veneers this morning.
I'd like to use it to veneer a small mdf cabinet that I made.
Trouble is...I haven't a clue where to start!
Can anyone answer a few basic questions for me?
1) What's the best way to trim the veneer to size?
Use the cabinet sides as a template and trim around them with a scalpel?
2) What kind of glue do I use to stick the veneer?
Can I use my plain old evo-stick that I use for joints etc?
3) How do I let the glue set?
I was planning to clamp the veneered sides between 2 scrap pieces of mdf to allow the glue to dry. Will this produce a smooth finish?
Thanks,
Mark.
