I too had this problem in flattening cinnamin laurel veneer, but was lucky enough to be able to sand the marks out.: Dear Stefan,: That amount of pressure is really fine, I cant see why you would have permanent marks from: the screen.: Darryl: : Well, the directions said to put heavy weight on top of it. I didn't : : know how much so I put a 45 lb. plate on top. Is that too much? : : This is a little piece (4"x3") so there is no glue up.: : Stefan: : : : : Dear Stefan,: : : If you glued the panel up with a catalytic glue like urea resin you : : could wet use an iron with: : : a wet wash cloth and lightly steam the veneer, this should help : : with the screening marks.: : : Dont do this if you used a white or yellow glue, the heat could : : make the glue let go.: : : I am surprised you had screen marks, I have been doing this method : : for years without problems.: : : Maybe you pressed it to hard.: : : Sincerely: : : Darryl Keil: : : : : : I have recently finished flattening a piece of walnut burl : : veneer. I : : : : used veneer softener from rockler's catalogue and followed the : : : : directions. It said to sandwich veneer between fiberglass screen : : and : : : : then newspaper in order to press it. I have put a small piece on : : my : : : : workpiece and I cannot sand the screen marks off. There is an : : inlay : : : : around the veneer which I have already sanded through so I can't : : go : : : : any further. Any suggestions?
