I have a couple of cracks in the original faux wood veneer. Should I even consider trying to find a matching veneer to replace the bad panels? Anyone know what the pattern or color's name is? Is working with this stuff easy??

thanks, jp

What are the options for this material? I know one could R&R it but short of that is there some reasonably straight forward option to take care of this?

Thanks,

JD

yes just fill in any holes with polyester filler,sand down with 100 grid,prime with rollar,sand lightly 320 grit and top coat.i used 1 part epoxy with roller give a matte finish somewhat like fine leather.met the interior designers approval.absolutly no high gloss !!!
