veneer goes through a printer so you should probably put the graphic on befor you glue them together, there is a youtube video that I'm gonna put on for this kind of stuff

[uziXwraith]

best idea... i would hand paint if theyre decorative, you can do a full deck graphic then both sides,

[jacob cody]

[cbechayda1]
