Clever movie tie-in with Dickel and I also enjoyed the bumper sticker!

Thanks again Buzz!

 I've never read any reviews about peel an stick veneer, but I can imagine three obvious potential problems give what happens to other peel and stick products.

(A) The glue will ooze out or off gas from time to time causing problems with the finish.
(B) The glue will dry out causing the veneer to detach itself.
© The glue will allow the veneer to shift around with changes in heat and humidity.

Aside from those, and given the situation with paper backed veneer, the selection of different cuts and species will be limited to the more common types.

Arran
