MKGBass Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 I have this beautiful flamed maple veneer, but its very wavy... How will I go about flattening it? Water and an iron? Help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crafty Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 That would probably work fine. I seem to remember a Popular Mechanics article from about 12 or 13 years ago that dealt with veneering. You might check out one of the local libraries to see if they have back issues for it. I think it was around either 1992 or 1991. Just keep the iron moving to avoid burning the veneer, use lots of steam and even a spray bottle of water, then put some flat heavy stuff on it to keep it from curling as it dries.
