I refinished a nice Philco 90 last year. There was a crack in the front veneer which (I thought) I had re-glued successfully. But the crack has reappeared. Other than completely removing and applying new veneer, anyone had success on fixing this type of problem? I know this veneer is called "oriental" or Australian walnut and is likely rare and pricey. And re-dong the veneer may be a bit above my current skill set.
Thanks,
Lou
