veneer question

Hi, I have a question for the wood workers among you: my Dunlavy SC-V is finished with cherry veneer. At the speaker's long edge (at the rear) this veneer shows a bit of loosening from the MDF surface. This happens almost at the entire length of the edge. Is it a common situation for these speakers? What can be done to prevent further deterioration? Thank you in advance.

That is the point, carpenter glue is the one that gets absorbed by wood product, be it a veneer or a piece of wood. In addition, you could barely see it, when it dries. You can also sand MDF if it's too smooth. I've seen some MDF is silky smooth. I've used carpenter glue on MDF a lot, and always succesfully.
thanks

this is what you need to do. carpenter glue does an excellent job on veneer. just use a plastic knife and squize some glue between veneer and mdf, let it dry for a minute or so and then press or use a clamp. it's easy.
