veneer removal

[poorpeet]

I am in the process of stripping the dash in order to recover it. Some of the veneer has come off quite easily but the rest is a real sod to get off.
Any one got any tips?

hammer and chisel... works a treat!

Apply heat to the veneer with a paint removing heat gun, then use an oribtal sander to finish it off. Thats how i did it anyway.

I'll try the heat gun. I was expecting it to come away fairly easily once it had started to lift.
