Wood-All Maple Wood Veneer Sheet, Plain Sliced/Flat Cut, 24x96, A Grade 10 mil Paperback

Very nice product. I have seen some reviews saying they have had problems finishing by doing some stupid s_ _ t, such as putting water on to raise the grain and sanding before staining. As a retired cabinet and furniture shop owner please allow me to help some. First uncoil the veneer as you remove the veneer. This will avoid tearing or splitting the veneer. (I saw one review saying the veneer split. Maybe because it was pulled out of the box without uncoiling as it was removed.) As for installation, I prefer a solvent based contact cement. Make sure the veneer is sanded uniformly. I usually sand it to 120 or150 grit sandpaper. Stain if wanted. Let dry 24 hours or force dry with heat. Apply sanding sealer, let me dry, sand with a fine sanding sponge. Apply subsiqunt coats of finish, sanding between coats.

I had dark furniture that was 10 years old and wanted to update them. My dad striped off the old stain and found that the drawer front inserts weren’t real wood. He bought these to cover them and it was a game changer. It stained like a dream and you can’t tell he used it. It’s perfect.

Build quality is fine, comparable with other paperback veneers I’ve purchased. But the grain is not even and clean like other maple veneers I’ve used. Maybe I just got a bad sample, but it’s supposed to be A-grade. Hesitant to even use it on a precious, time-consuming project.

Love this laminate. The grain patterns are beautiful; the color is gorgeous; takes lacquer finish extremely well, and looks like wood, because it is. The laminate went down easily, following the manufacturers recommendations, lays flat, and needs no sanding before lacquering. I wanted the natural finish and color of maple, so did not apply any stains. Great product!

new to using a product like this; a cold press wood glue worked well

This stuff is beautiful. It’s easy to use & finishes beautifully.

They are selling pine laminate as maple laminate. The grain pattern on their product does not come close to being a maple pattern. I am on a time sensitive job and this put me behind. NOT HAPPY WITH THIS SELLER!!!!

as a professional cabinet maker i use a lot of veneer. I needed a small piece on short notice so i ordered it through Amazon. It arrived in two days. I was very pleased with the overall quality.
