I am searching for a substitute for contact cement that will not react with lacquer. I need to veneer surfaces on a large box that is already constructed. I am looking for something that will allow me to adhere veneer to the substrate with a dry bond, but will not react with lacquer, as contact cement does. I would like to avoid the PVA glue/ iron-on method, if possible. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Katy

Traditional hide glue or try the new FSV glue.

Contact cement is for paper backed veneer only.

I have a can of 'green' contact cement (water based).
I doubt that would work with lacquer, but I don't know for sure.
