Wood Veneer Table Top

Shrimp, my vintage Marine Trader also had laminate on all the horizontal surfaces. It originally had a "wood-grain" look to it but years of UV exposure had made it faded and nasty.

Solution: I bought some pressure-sensitive teak veneer from Rockler wood supplier.

Here are Before & After pics.* Once installed, the stuff stays put very well, and can be sanded, etc like real wood. (It is real teak) .
