Dunlavy SC-IVa speaker cabinet refinishing source?

I owned a pair of SC-IV's earlier and had no problem with the veneer, but this pair was made from cabinets by DAL's original outside cabinet supplier. I obtained my second pair of SC-IV's (the ones I now own, SC-IVa's) after DAL moved their cabinet manufacturing and finishing work in house. Apparently, my pair had their veneer attached with a bad glue batch.

A high end piano store in your area may have a piano/furniture repairman than can do this for you.

Thanks for your input(s). I have identified a suitable specialist through inquiries to a veneer supply house. In response to Commcat's surprise of not having heard of veneer problems with Dunlavy's speaker's, it is indeed quite common with Dunlavy's larger, floor-standing, speakers (SC-III, IV, V, and VI). There is even one thread at this site from several years ago that sought advice as to how to re-attach loose veneer to a larger Dunlavy speaker cabinet. In my experience, the problem is more common than not.

According to the person who I found, veneer detaches from its substrate due to the substrate changing size on one surface (he said the substrate becomes unbalanced). In the case of my Dunlavy SC-IVa's, the cabinet MDF board comprising the speaker outer walls apparently lost moisture and shrank on their outer surface and the veneer began to detach at the weakest glue bond points, thereby forming bubbles in the surface of the cabinet. The speaker could also acquire more moisture and increase in size. This would lead to the veener splitting on the MDF surface, leaving apparent gaps in the veneer.

This "unbalance" in the moisture content of the substrate (here again, we're talking about the Dunlavy MDF board cabinet walls) can be avoided by veneering both sides of the substrate. I suspect that Dunlavy did not do this double-sided veneering of the MDF materials before assembling the cabinets, because the speakers were available with different custom-ordered veneer skins. Perhaps Dunlavy did not worry about the moisture content of their MDF materials since they were assembling their speakers in a relatively low-humidity environment of Colorado. But I would expect that the veneer problem would be more evident with the larger speakers (surface expansion and contraction being highest along the longest dimension) and would be expected to vary to the extent that the speakers are used in an evironment whose relative humidity differs from that of Colorado.

Oil your veneers seems nones does anymore. Veneer holds far better on birch ply but since MDF is so much cheaper thats what most manufacters use.

Dan,
It can't be from a lack of moisture. There is little or no moisture in the Los Angeles area. I have two pairs of SC-V's neither of which have shown any of the problems you mentioned. I have owned these for around 10+ years. The veneer is still as smooth as the day the Speakers were purchased and they have been moved 4 or 5 times, baked in the hot sun, subjected to air conditioning, dust, etc. I have seen many other Dunlavy's in the LA area, and all still look mint. If there is a moisture problem it must be from exposure to excessive moisture. I can imagine the MDF expanding due to moisture content and causing the veneer to crack. But this scenario would seem to require a heck of a lot of water in the air, steam or something similar. How will you avoid a repetition of this problem?
