Want to refinish a night table. It has a veneer coating which has cracked and chipped. I'd like to get it off.
Any suggestions,

You want to remove the whole veneer or the finish?

The wood under the veneer is called secondary wood---you will need to replace the veneer is you remove it.
And removing it---the veneer has been glued on---is most easily done by sanding it off. That will be prohibitively expensive in sandpaper and mess.

I am waiting for Montela to explain further.

Hi, montela!

If it is the veneer that you're wanting to remove, then I would suggest using an old iron that you don't mind getting adhesive on with damp cloths to then create steam to loosen the adhesive that's affixing the veneer and then scraping the veneer off with a flexible putty knife.

One of the things that I do for a living is to refinish and re-veneer furniture.

Thanks!
