When picnic tables are new they are beautiful accessories
for a Rolls-Royce interior. However, like many things,
when they have problems, those problems completely detract
from that same interior. The before pictures on this
page of a 1980s Silver Spur show an extreme case of
de-lamination and expose part of the problems that contribute
to the cracking of the finish. In addition to the
de-lamination of the wood strata, because of the hollow
nature of construction, there is unwanted movement that
adds to the cracked veneer and finish failure.
Our solution, as always, is to go to the root of the
problem before taking corrective measures. By drilling
holes and filling the interior with high density foam,
the table can be stabilized prior to veneering.
Only after the corrective surgery can the cosmetic work
of veneer and finish proceed.
