Handle the sheet gently before bonding and avoid flexing the burl, which can crack even on a 20Mil backer. Because figure and tone vary so much between leaves, dry-fit the entire run and number panels before applying adhesive, and balance the reverse face to keep panels flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eHandle burl veneer gently to avoid cracking, and wear gloves and eye protection when trimming; provide ventilation when using contact adhesive.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder the GL Veneer Walnut Burl Veneer Sheet for rich, dramatic burl figure on feature panels and doors.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GL Veneer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67588359913839,"sku":"GLC1-WL BUR 20MM","price":830.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/3499\/7051\/files\/glpwc1-wl_1.jpg?v=1790487079","url":"https:\/\/superarbor.io\/products\/gl-veneer-walnut-burl-wood-veneer-sheet-20mil-paper-backer-48-in-x-96-in","provider":"Super Arbor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
