Default ply woes.

I now have a situation I don't know how to correct.
I had a new Pella bay window put in about 5 years ago, then they leaked,
so they replaced them. It's been about 2.5 years .

Well I had stained with gel stain and shellaced the windows.
Now I noticed that the ply is delaming on the veneer joints. They are
popping in quite a number of areas.

I'm ****ed, and at a loss of what to do without making a mess of the whole
thing. I really don't want to refinish it again, and I think if I did, I
would have to paint it after fixing the problem.

PLY is really not what it used to be.


I think I would call Pella and ask them what's up with their plywood. Seems
they are only good for 2 1/2 years, not a resounding recommendation for
Pella

Is the face veneer up enough so you can lift it enough to see under it?
Stained under (from water)?
