Brian Posted February 15, 2003 Report Share Posted February 15, 2003 This stuff has posibilities as an alternative to the traditional gluing methods Look's like it would run $7 for a 20"x24" piece if I'm reading it correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jehle Posted February 15, 2003 Report Share Posted February 15, 2003 The only thing I would worry about useing a hot melt glue is that you could potentially burn the wood. I did a good job burning the botched veneer when I tried to remove it with an iron. Sure that means that the iron was too hot, but I would hate to think that I could burn the veneer and glue it down to the guitar body at the same time. Eeeek... :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Rosenberger Posted February 16, 2003 Report Share Posted February 16, 2003 heres a tip for removing old veneer. I use an Iron and an old t-shirt.Dampen the t-shirt and Use the steam setting on the iron. The steam softens the glue really fast and doesn't seem to bother the wood underneath. It removes most of the glue as well which makes for easier sanding. Works really well when removing a fabric top as well. Brian you might want to put this in the tips section Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
