Make one or two small slits with a razor knife In the direction of the grain - not across. I will make those in the grain itself. These will let the air out when you use a hot iron to stick the veneer down. Work from the edges toward your slit(s). Do not overheat. Success will depend on whether or not you used enough glue on the original application.
