This "narrow ridge" scraper is designed for applying paperbacked veneer with contact cement, Flex-Pro adhesive, and PSA backed veneers. This tool doesn't look like much but it works wonders. It uses a simple but powerful concept in which hand/arm force is used to concentrate pressure at the tip of the tool to achieve an excellent bond between the substrate and the paperbacked veneer. This tool/method creates a stronger surface contact than an ordinary roller.

Begin at the center of the veneer and work toward the edges in the sequence shown below. This method will prevent bubbles in the veneer and create an excellent bond. Start in the center and drag the scraper tool in the direction of the arrows as shown below. Be sure to pass the tool over each inch of the veneer to get the best possible bond.
