Hello Folks,
Thanks for the advice everyone!
I bought a big tin of an "Evostick", type adhesive on Ebay. It allows some small repostioning prior to pressing home. I used an old flat iron for the job and it worked a treat! I then used some water based stain to get a nice colour to the veneer.
I am now at the final stage of applying many layers of clear laquer (rubbing down between coats).
I think I will get the final coats on this weekend if this fine weather keeps up? I will post photos of before & after when finished.
Paul
