VQ 29: If my panel doesn come out right, how do I remove a veneer from the substrate?
There really is no easy way to remove veneer that has been applied with common veneer adhesives. The nature of the veneer glue is to make an exceptionally strong bond thereby making it very difficult to remove a veneer intentionally. In some cases, you may be able to heavily sand the panel to remove the veneer and adhesive. Ultra-Cat veneer glue generally is the easiest to sand off because it doesn’t gum up sand paper as much as other adhesives. However, in most cases you’ll probably find it easiest to just remake the substrate panel and start fresh.
