Workbench help needed

[Brian Burke]

Hi folks. I have a workbench that came with the house I bought. It has some sort of veneer that I attempted to remove and as you can see in the photo, I got to a point where it’s now like stuck-on wallpaper where it comes off in slivers. Has anyone ever seen a veneer like this or have any idea what it’s made of? I’m also curious what type of adhesive might have been used as well as how to remove the rest of it. Any help is appreciated.

Hello,

Applying heat will release most adhesives.
That said a hair dryer will work (slower).
Although a Heat Gun will work faster (be careful or you could actually burn stuff)

Best of luck,
Cloud
