How do you fix peeling laminate furniture?
Using superglue or epoxy glue, adhere the peeling portion to the particle board that rests under it. To ensure that you don’t apply too much glue, squeeze a little glue onto a toothpick, carefully slip it under the peeling laminate and then press the laminate back into place, likely reattaching it to the base wood.
How do you fix peeling veneer on a dresser?
Anything that can be pulled up with a razor or sharp utility knife is best cut away. I score the veneer well above the damage where the glue is still holding. Then flake off the old chipping area. Once all the damaged veneer is removed, I like to use this Bondo for the repairs.
