Veneer Repairs

 


 

 

Both of the smaller top drawers had small places where the veneer was chipped and missing or loose. I filled the small voids with a filler that blended so well it was barely noticeable. Also, after the stripping process, the larger bottom drawer front was left with veneer that was badly puckered and loose on both sides. After a little hide glue and clamping, all was well.
