Applying round edge veneer requires precision and attention to detail to achieve a professional-looking finish. Here is a step-by-step guide to help you apply round edge veneer correctly:

Materials Required:* Round edge veneer
* Contact cement
* Trim router
* Sandpaper
* Clamps
* Measuring tape
* Pencil or marking tool

Step 1: Preparation* Cut the round edge veneer to the desired length.
* Apply contact cement to both the edge of the furniture piece and the back of the veneer.
* Allow the contact cement to dry until tacky, as per the manufacturer's instructions.

Step 2: Alignment and Positioning* Align the veneer with the edge of the furniture piece, ensuring that the grain pattern matches the surface veneer.
* Position the veneer and press firmly along its length to create a strong bond.
* Use clamps to hold the veneer in place while the contact cement dries.

Step 3: Trimming the Veneer* Once the veneer has set, use a trim router equipped with a flush trim bit to trim the veneer flush with the surface of the furniture piece.
* Ensure that the router is set to the correct depth to avoid damaging the surface veneer.

Step 4: Sanding and Finishing* Sand the trimmed edge of the veneer lightly to smooth any rough edges or imperfections.
* Use fine-grit sandpaper to achieve a smooth and even finish.
* Apply a clear finish to the veneer to protect it from wear and tear.

Tips for a Professional-Looking Finish:* Use a sharp blade to cut the veneer to ensure a clean and precise cut.
* Apply the contact cement evenly to both surfaces to ensure a strong bond.
* Allow the contact cement to dry completely before pressing the veneer in place.
* Use a sharp router bit and set the depth correctly to achieve a flush trim.
* Sand the trimmed edge gently to avoid damaging the veneer.
* Apply the clear finish in thin layers and allow it to dry completely between coats.
