my interior vaneer is delaminating,..
Epoxy is ideal for veneering boat parts. If the part is lying flat when the
veneer is applied, don't use a thickener in the epoxy. If not, thicken very slightly with flox (WEST #403) or colloidal silica - runnier than mayonnaise. Vacuum bagging is a good way to clamp the veneer. The epoxy will bleed through if you've applied enough. Worry if it doesn't.. Scrape and sand it off. "ahoy" wrote in message ... I used 1088 ply and glued a fitch (?) of excellent looking vaneer over the top with elmers waterproof glue. I spread both surfaces and let them dry then ironed the vaneer on. I looked perfect, very professional and with the varnish was rather impressive though I say it myself. So up it goes on the done-for-now shelf in my damp shop which I use to simulate a boat environment. I take it down to fit 3 months later and discover large bubbles where the vaneer has lifted. I tried another piece with west system as a glue but it soaked through the vaneer in blotches and looked awful. thanks again. |
