Yes, 3M brand painters tape so you won't get the 3M contact cement on the veneer. And be sure to put plenty of Post-It Notes in your work area with your work-step reminders written on them. That good 3M sandpaper will create lots of dust, so be sure to wear your 3M dust mask :D

Seriously Greg, I was thinking the Solar-Lux cherry might work for you - glad it did. Post a photo for us to see.

Great idea. I'll just stick about $200 worth of post-it notes on the veneer face to protect it. :) All kidding aside, I do want to use something to protect the veneer from the contact cement as I am ham-handed and messy.

I've had no trouble getting contact cement off of veneer. It usually is just on the top 1/16" of the adjacent side. I just get a rag with some mineral spirits on it and scrub until it comes off.

Hank, I bought some 3M tape the other day. I couldn't help but think of you!:)

Hank,

I didn't know you were Catholic! :)

BTW, I can't find your home email. Drop me a quick note. I've got something important to share!

EDIT: Nevermind! Found it!
