Default glueing veneered MDF

Use a roller.

I did an entertainment/wall unit that was 12 feet long that had mahogany
veneer on it.
Just roll it out.

Also - if you need to joint it at all - sandwich the 2 mating between 2
pieces of MDF and use a flush trim bit to get a nice flat joint.

Just use contact cement.
Put on both surfaces - wait until it gets tacky and press together.


The joints are rather long. Each is over 7 ft in length.

Somehow spreading contact cement with a brush isn't going to cut it.

What is the proper adhesive and procedure for glueing up some 3/4
veneered MDF? The veneer is so thin that if I tried to clean up any
squeeze-out I will probably ruin the veneer. The joints will be
mitered. Either I am looking in the wrong spots but after a google
search I found nothing helpful.

thanks!
