There are a couple of techniques that can be used to repair blisters that have formed on a veneer surface. Usually, with heating, the surface to reactivate the glue is a great way of resolving small blisters. Our technique protects the surface and repairs the blisters easily. We apply several different layers of materials to protect the surface from direct heat, and then use our specialty hot iron to apply heat to the area where the blister is. This repair method uses indirect heat to reactivate the glue and smooth out the blister. We never use direct heat or touch the furniture with the hot iron. That would cause more damage than the blister, so we use caution, precision, and care with each blister removal service. |
