can you show how to do a top plus an edge? thanks.

Thanks for a most instructive video. My challenge is to apply 3" oak veneer to 'L' shaped aluminum valance (that hides horizontal roll blinds). I have option of gluing directly on to the existing woven fibreglass substrate (identical to blind) covering the valance or stripping the substrate and gluing to the aluminum surface. Your recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Hi was this a paper or wood back?

Excellent video, great explanations and instructions!

Which brands of gel-type contact cement would you recommend? I cannot see the logo on the can.

very good instructions! I'm working on a set of nightstands and this is a new skill for me. My first attempt was lumpy and bubbly so I'm trying again following your method. wish me luck lol!

This man is an excellent instructor and speaker. Great job on this video -- it helped me a lot.

Hi! Do you have advice for applying non-backed veneer to MDF?

Can the edges be sanded with fine grit ?

Im thinking to make flat veneer door panels so the area would be close to like 1x2 meters. Any tips or discouragement from trying that manualy in the workshop?

When you apply the second coat of contact cement, should it also be dry/tacky or wet when you place the veneer? Also, should the cement be wet on the back of the veneer when placed?

Keep putting stuff out. It leads to positive customer interaction and has a low overhead cost.

I liked the video btw

What’s the thickest veneer you guys sell not glued to a substrate?

I am redoing an old dresser and it’s just old unfinished wood that I will be applying the veneer to. What do I need to be aware of. I haven’t finished watching all your videos so if you answer this in an upcoming video I apologize for jumping the gun.

Thanks for the advice. I noticed that you don't blink your eyes. How is that possible? Cheers!!!

Great company, we just did a project that had a 97" wide front and they sent us untrimmed sheets 99 x 48 so we could do it unseamed and not have to pay for a 120 x 48.

First time veneering and good thing I'm doing tests because when I rolled on the Lepages Gel contact cement onto a paper backed piece of veneer the cement clumped up, it didn't roll on smooth like yours. I'm using a 3/16 mohair roller. Might I have over rolled it and/or not used enough cement? Thanks, John

I have a nice sheet of PSA veneer and I am going to try to put it on salvaged coffee table. 2 things I need advice on. First, it’s like an ikea piece.. laminate fake wood. It’s also been perhaps damaged…? ..like… it got wet? I sanded it and it’s PRETTY smooth. But certainly not perfect. What kind of extra precautions do I need to take? (I almost feel like it’s grittier and the adhesive may stick even better!) Second, it’s a “lift top” or “pop up” coffee table, and this particular coffee table has 2 separate side by side surfaces, but I want the grain to line up.. almost like a waterfall effect..? I’m assuming I should cut first, THEN apply the veneer.. although my inner optimist wants to apply and then cut 😂

Love this video - Thanks Oakwood!

This step-by-step tutorial is pure gold for all DIY enthusiasts and folks new to wood veneer. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just getting started, these expert tips on applying wood veneer to different surfaces gave me enough information to execute this on my own in the future. Thanks Oakwood!

Would you suggest WoW or something else for building an exterior door with a stave core?

This was so helpful. Thank you so much.

Do you sell PSA veneer in small sheets? I need roughly a 3’x 4’ piece of curly maple.

You mentioned mdf only needs 1 coat of glue, why is that?

How do I keep Track of the Screw Holes ? I need them to put My Turntable back together ? Thanks for The reply

What’s the best way to get the wood on wood veneer to lay flat since it’s shipped in a roll. Also what glue would you recommend. I’m using pressure with clamps and rolling glue onto a sewing machine table. Thanks.

Hi all novice here, I’m looking for advice. Can you apply a wood veneer to laminate countertops? The laminate is in good condition. I have been trying to find an answer online but haven’t found anything yet and I’m hoping this comment section might have some advice for me. We can’t afford a full kitchen remodel right now (who can?), but we’re are saving hard for it; I figured a stick on wood laminate could be a good option in the meantime while we save. I understand that you can not cut on it, that’s not a problem (we had butcher block in the past and chose not to cut on it also). I think if we can apply wood laminate to the countertops, paint the cabinets, and add a peel and stick backsplash, I’ll stop complaining, love my 1994 kitchen and we can quietly save for two years. We did considered replacing the countertops with butcher block (it’s what I want anyway), but like everything the butcher block isn’t the cheapest option, and I’d rather not waste the wood, time and money when it will to be changed in the remodel in a year or two. It’s a waste of materials and cost I’d rather avoid. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Where are u located

What brand/formulation of gel are you using in this video? TIA. Mark

Then what. Rub it back and paint.

Hi thank you for all your excellent videos & taking your time to make us the videos. i have a question please. So I have made a lean to shed using thin mdf board panel as my walls. What I did was I use the nailer gun and stapled the board onto the 2x4s all around. It’s been over 2 years now and it’s starting to come off like the stamped nails are coming off the 2x4 and there are gaps between the vertical boards that are attached side by side. My problem is that I can’t get myself to the back of the boards to staple or mail it onto the 2x4s. So I will have to go inside the shed and try to somehow pull the boards inward and use long nails to attach from the inside instead. Now my question is…if I was to use cement all fast setting concrete and put at between the gaps on side by side boards will it bond and hold up? I was thinking about also making the fabric concrete and stapling it onto the boards and 2x4s hoping it will bond. Will it be ok? Any advice is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

can you add veneer over a laminate piece? if so, what type of veneer and adhesive would be best?

Thank you so much for taking the time to upload this video. I’ve done lots of wood working before, but this is my first time trying to repair veneer. I have an old hope chest that has veneer that has peeled. I was going to just remove it all, but it is still so pretty in parts, that I’m going to try to replace it. Any suggestions when matching veneered sections up with other sections? For example half missing on a panel, but the other half is still in tact. Also, if that doesn’t work, do you use acetone to remove the existing veneer or something else? Thanks again!

I did it too. This is what I used Woodglut designs for

Best practice is place the veneer on the substrate and glue the veneer first. This saves getting the roller picking up any particulate on the bench as it’s raised on the substrate. Also, your not having to have a an additional flat surface to glue the veneer, the glued veneer can then be placed almost anywhere even on top of clutter while waiting for the set Just a good tip for the beginner.

Can you use red spray contact adhesive with phenolic veneer just as you would with laminate?

What was the brand of contact cement you used?

Well, this was better than your first video, but you still offered very little information about the products or how to make the selection.

Great video, very helpful. Just what I needed to know with a very clear demonstration. Thank you for taking the time to share!

I did it with Woodprix.

How do you remove any contact cement you may have gotten on top of the veneer?

Man, I just used a Gel cement (LePage) on a project and it was stringy as hell. It dried seconds after laying up the substrate with a roller. Infuriating! Had to scrape, sand, rub it off. GRRRR!

Hello! Hoping you still check the comments here. What if I am looking for veneer with no backing?

I recently came across an old Lane cedar chest that I am trying to veneer. Unfortunately the old finish is not salvageable. I have sanded and patched all the holes from the old drawer knobs. I purchased Teak veneer that is about 10 mil thick. What is the best to way to apply it, contact cement or veneer glue? Any suggestions on a brand of contact cement or glue to use?

Wouldnt applying pva glue cause the veneer to wrinkle? Or to roll?

What do you do if your veneer has ripples in it, meaning before you prepare it for contact cement???
