Thanks for the info on the glue Bob! My veneer isn't paper-backed - it's raw veneer, and on the thick side, which I think is where the concern about normal veneer gluing options comes from.

Note - that I haven't toned my front panel yet - only stripped it. It is definitely darker than many other examples that I've seen. I plan to use 'Golden Oak' toning lacquer to try and give it a lighter appearance. I wonder if that will be sufficient though.
