First time veneering. I’m planning on gluing shop made 3/32 veneer onto the hood below. I put a face board on the bottom vertical area to create a ledge, and dry fit the veneer by pressing it down from the top. It fit to the curve well. So the plan is to use epoxy rolled out on the hood. Put the veneer on by pushing it down from the top against the face board using a few staples at the top to hold it. Finish with a j roller to eliminate the air bubbles. (The staples at the top will be covered with trim during the install.) the sides will be done first. Then the face last. I don’t have a vacuum setup so that is not an option, and the convex curve doesn’t lend itself to the iron methods I’ve been reading about.
So do you folks think my plan will work?
any thoughts, suggestions, or comments?
Thanks
Sean
