As a leading manufacturer of furniture edge banding in China, we understand the importance of maintaining the aesthetics and durability of your furniture. Removing wood veneer edge banding strips can be a delicate process, but with the right techniques and tools, it can be done without damaging the underlying wood.

Step 1: Gather Materials* Sharp utility knife or razor blade
* Thin putty knife or scraper
* Heat gun or hair dryer
* Damp cloth

Step 2: Score the Edge* Wear gloves and safety glasses for protection.
* Using the utility knife or razor blade, score along the edge of the wood veneer edging strip, being careful not to cut into the wood surface.

Step 3: Heat and Loosen* Use a heat gun or hair dryer to gently heat up the edge banding strip. This will soften the adhesive and make it easier to remove.
* Hold the heat source about 6 inches from the strip and keep it moving to prevent burning.

Step 4: Scrape the Adhesive* While the adhesive is still warm, use the thin putty knife or scraper to gently scrape away any excess adhesive from the wood surface.
* Be careful not to gouge or scratch the wood.

Step 5: Peel and Remove* Once the adhesive has been removed, carefully peel the wood veneer edging strip away from the wood surface.
* If the strip resists, reheat it with the heat gun or hair dryer and try again.

Step 6: Clean the Surface* Use a damp cloth to clean the wood surface and remove any remaining adhesive residue.
* Allow the wood to dry completely before applying new edging strips or finishing.

Additional Tips:* Use a sharp tool to avoid jagged edges when scoring.
* Test the heat gun or hair dryer on an inconspicuous area first to ensure it doesn't damage the wood.
* If the adhesive is particularly stubborn, you can try using a mild solvent, such as mineral spirits. Apply it with a cotton swab and allow it to soak for a few minutes before scraping.
* Be patient and take your time. Removing wood veneer edging strips can be a tedious process, but it's important to do it carefully to avoid damaging the furniture.
