Thanks Rehd, I was hoping you might chime in. I do not intend to use a sprayer, I will brush on only. But I will take your advice and study the application directions and chat with the dealers first.

Noah's boat supplies carries Dural contact cement that is "self leveling" The only experience I have with contact cement is the basic Lepages variety. I recall contact cement as being a bit on the viscous side I was not aware of any way that it could self level. Any idea what this means?

I am awaiting the delivering of my veneers. One variety in my order is quilted big leaf maple. The sheets seem to be naturally "waffled" in that they do not lie nice and flat but naturally have small built in areas of warp or waffle. Will contact cement and a lineoleum roller overcome this or do I need to do some prep first or clamping after?

I have a small linoleum type roller that I have used for applying photos to card stock. Do I need to invest in a double roller that wood shop catalogues carry or will this suffice?

Thanks for your input...
