Mark,There is a number of causes and without seeing the doors Im only speculating. First, is it just the finish that is crazing or is the veneer fissuring? If its in the veneer then the problem is not your glueing but the glueing of the two ply. If your radius is fairly tight then this fissuring of the veneer would be somewhat normal if the two ply was quite dry. If the problem is just in the finish itself then your suspicion with the stain is probably correct. Possibly not enough dry time before applying finish.SincerelyDarryl Keil: I'm having a problem with vertical crazing on convex vacuum pressed : doors. The 3/4" doors are made using two 3/8" bending panels and : skinned on both faces with commercial 2-ply maple veneer (Formwood).: I used Unibond for the glue-up and experienced virtually no spring : back. The finish is pre-catalyzed lacquer over a water based stain (I : suspect this is the real problem but the stain claims compatability : with lacquer based top coats) and only shows crazing on the front and : back of the doors in a vertical direction (the capped edges are : fine). The doors have maintained their curve where fit to the case is : concerned so movement seems to be minimal. I would appreciate any : insight you might have.: Thanks,: Mark Hyde
