We can, and have, veneered anything from classic dashboards to cup coasters, photographs (embedded in) and rifle butts! If you have any wacky ideas, let us know and we’ll see what we can do!
GDK VeneeringI took a bespoke piece of dash i made for my lotus to Ged, who the explained what can be done and what can`t.
eg, hard to simulate 30 years of sun fade.
The finished piece looks fab with its mirror finish and depth, i might just have the other two done now.
If you are close enough, go and see him , you won`t be disappointed.
Many Thanks

GDK VeneeringI took my badly water affected dash from a triumph Spitfire to Ged who showed me some of the complex work he was doing at the time. Within a month I had my pieces ready to refit and it looks superb. I couldn't be more pleased with the quality of the workmanship and can assure anyone they won't be disappointed.

GDK VeneeringReceived the wood trim set for my Princess last night. Have checked everything and it's absolutely superb. I am delighted with it, it's second to none. I also have a couple of door tops from a 1961 Humber Hawk that need the same kind of treatment, so look forward to sending that to you, too!
Best regards, Clive Smith

GDK VeneeringIn despair I sent Ged the three wooden interior parts for my 1969 Mercedes Pagoda ( barn find) . The original parts were "shot" - delaminated, fractured and in one part mouldy ! I had been unable to source RHD reproductions in the UK or Germany so had to find a way to restore the remains of what was left .
I had dreamed of a rich burled walnut finish but given up on the idea until Ged told me it was possible . He is a miracle worker , a true craftsman . He would not give up until he created the perfect result . You just don't find specialists so skilled and proud of their work . I cannot tell you the size of my grin when I opened the package to see the deep shiny walnut perfectly repaired and then slotting into place . Absolutely fabulous - thanks Ged .

GDK VeneeringTestimonial: It is just incredible that wood could be transformed from peeling shabby tired looking timber trim into a thing of beauty. Ged and Daniel are miracle workers that have a deep passion and love of what they do and i have no hesitation in giving them 110% recommendation just look at my pics if you need any proof: http://www.gdkveneering.co.uk/category/restorations/georges-rolls-royce-relacquer
