peer agreement (net): +9face and backing veneer Explanation: I'm an American cabinetmaker and can only offer US English terms. They may well be the same in UK English. FACE VENEER - The decorative veneer on the face of the panel; the exposed side, be it wall paneling, furniture, cabinet or other. BACKING VENEER - The layer of veneer used on the reverse side of a piece of plywood from the face or decorative side. http://www.baconveneer.com/pages/glossary_plywood.html -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 19 hrs 46 mins (2005-08-06 23:35:41 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Hello Selcuk, I don\'t think a blind veneer is the same thing as a backing or back veneer. The veneer you described is placed on the back side of a panel where it is not visible from the outside. A blind veneer, according to the description below, is placed underneath the face veneer. Blind veneers are glued underneath the face veneer in order to prevent the face veneer (especially curled veneers) from tearing. http://www.ewbc.de/onlinelearning/eopt/data/nid18185_18121/1... |
