If your new to veneering, use the contact cement method.This way you dont need to have full pressure on the veneer surface if using hide clue while it sets. Do not use water based contact cement as it has the tendancy to bleed through the veneer. Use a couple of coats of sealer first, this will aid in the contact cement bond lasting longer.To aid with alignment of the veneer over the substrate,(once both surfaces touch there is no going back !) use slats from an old window blind or small dowels. Start removing them from the center first as you bond the surfaces together and work out to the ends.
