I need to cover over a top of a chest that the veneer has bubbled up in spots(urea formald. glue so it never adheared to start with). My intention is to veneer an 1/8 inch fiberboard with a new veneer on it and then glue this panel on top of the existing top and framing the edges with hardwood. How far do I need to go to remove the old finish to get a good adhesion of the fiberboard to the old finish (or totally remove finish)?? The bubbles are only 2 or 3 not neear the edges. I think the fiberboard is the best way to fix this???Any thoughts would be appreciated!!

Dear Rick,A couple of thoughts. First, if you only have a few bubbles why not inject glue into them using a hypodermic needle and clamp these spots.If you want to go with your hardboard idea, I would scuff sand the finish and use either epoxy or polyurethane glue as they will both stick to the finish, and they will not introduce any moisture that could create warping due to the one sided pressing you will be doing.SincerelyDarryl Keil: I need to cover over a top of a chest that the veneer has bubbled up : in spots(urea formald. glue so it never adheared to start with).

DarrylThanks for the ideas. If I were to inject glue do I thin out the glue so it can pass through the needle?? What is the proper procedure??ThanksRick Sahlman: Dear Rick,: A couple of thoughts.

Dear Rick,My thoughts were that you would use yellow glue which I can get through a needle as is. You can thin it down 5% if needed. Inject the glue until you see it coming our around the needle. I pierce the veneer on a shallow angle and move the needle around get the glue everywhere and to open up the bubble more if the area around it is not adhered well.: Darryl: Thanks for the ideas.
