Bob,

I've used your veneers several times and I'm very satisfied.

Here's my question:  I want to cover a wooden (painted) surface above my fireplace, 70" wide x 6' tall.  If I order 2 sheets of veneer, can I match them side by side to get the 70" width?

Donald

Hello Donald,

Unless you order your veneer sheets "matched and sequenced", there's a good chance that they won't  be identical in grain and color tone.  If you are looking for identcal patterns and colors from one sheet to the next, the only way to guarantee this is to order your veneer matched and sequencd.  We would have to quote this, as it would be a custom order.

Mr. Morgan,

I have a client that is looking at wrapping 12' long beams in his living room with wood veneer.  The beams are currently painted MDF beams.  He is worried that the peel and stick would degrade or let loose due to the heat in the vaulted ceiling, and needs some reassurance that it will not.  I have used the peel and stick veneers for cabinets and I'm really pleased with the results.  (My custmers are too!).

But: they aren't subjected to that amount of extra heat.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  The beams are roughly 135" long, so the 12' stock would be preferable  Thank you!

Michael

Hello Michael,

I don't have any experience with this exact situation with the concrns about heat,  but I so believe tha the peel and stick adhesive would hold up.  I've had customers who have used the peel and stick veneers in the interiors of their vehicles and I've never had any complaints.  And, I have had customers who have veneered the beams in their ceilings with good results - but nobody mentioned any concerns about heat.

The 12' veneers don't come with the psa adhesive.  The psa adhesive onlhy comes with the 8' and 10' veneers - either paper backed or wood backed.  

If you want to use the peel and stick adhesive, it is available with the 8' and 10' long veneers.  You can get the 8'and 10' veneers with the psa on a paper backer or a wood backer.

However, if you match your veneer end to end, You CAN use the 8' veneers with the peel and stick adhesive.  Here's how:  You need to make an end match joint.  Our veneer sheets are made up of identically matching leaves.  If you cut out 2  strips (leaves) of veneer from the 4' x 8' sheet, you can match them end to end by rotating one of the strips 180 degrees.  The end matching joint will have matching grains that make a mirror image.  

Regards, Bob Morgan

Hi Bob,

Can you supply me with an extra long sheet of veneer, 16 feet to 24 feet long?

Paul

Hi Paul,

Our veneers come in 8', 10', and 12' lengths. But there is a way that you can join the veneer end to end to get longer lengths without having a noticeable seam at the joint.

Most of our veneer sheets are made using book matched components.  You can cut the veneer sheet down the middle going the long direction. Then, take one of the halves, rotate it 180 degrees, and match thegrains end to end. The grain patterns will closely match into each other and this will make the end joint less noticeable.

Regards,

Bob Morgan
