    Be careful with sanding that veneer too much given how thin it is. Most common solution, if it is glue that has seeped thru a thinner part of the veneer, is to use a product called goof off with either a small steel brush or firm toothbrush. You can get it from Bunnings and with care and caution you can remove the glue or most of it. I did find that you have to be super careful not to go thru the veneer or make it too smooth. You can then re-stain that area to gradually get it back to blending in. The goof off will dissolve some of the stain already applied. Good luck!

    Thanks for that. that's a bit of a problem for me as Bunnings is a long way from Hedland. I could probably get it shipped here , but not keen on waiting. The other thing I was thinking of was covering the marks with some sort of motif or custom feature. How thin is the veneer actually? This kit had some nasty scratches that needed some serious sanding. I hope I haven't burnt through it already. The flame is a bit faint in spots.


    20 mins later.... I just ordered some on ebay. Patience... patience....
