When assembling the furniture, one screw went a little too far and a little bit pushed out, on the other hand, the bulge is small, but the veneer continuity has been broken and a small burr has formed which I have to remove somehow and I don't know too much about it, so that when cleaning...

You know, you could sand a little and then apply the clearcoat to it, or replace the damaged veneer.

You can try to iron it with a hot iron.

put a little glue (some carpentry veneer or something similar), press it and if there is any gap, buy wood putty (there are different colors) and putty.

It is best to smooth and stick a piece of new veneer under the color. Veneers are available in some stores, e.g. obi etc.

If the board is pushed out, it will be difficult to mask it aesthetically, maybe think about a cover for a screw, it is always better than a piece of veneer that you will not fit perfectly anyway.

It's on the front, on the side? You can't fix any bumps or a cracked plate. You can possibly stick this bulge as low as possible and then harden the place with some varnish. and fill the hole from the inside with some glue, the teeth caught the broken chips. If this is a poorly visible place, then either some kind of plug, sticker, or a furniture fastener made of two screws with large flat heads (one screwed into the other).

When assembling the furniture, one screw went a little too far and a little bit pushed out, on the other hand, the bulge is small, but the veneer continuity has been broken and a small burr has formed which I have to remove somehow and I don't know too much about it, so that when cleaning the cloth afterwards, nothing will get caught on the cloth. can you smooth it properly?

Topic summary

The discussion focuses on repairing a broken veneer caused by a screw that was over-tightened, resulting in a small bulge and burr. Suggested solutions include sanding the area and applying a clear coat, using a hot iron to flatten the bulge, applying glue and wood putty to fill gaps, or replacing the damaged veneer with a new piece. For aesthetic concerns, alternatives like using a screw cover or furniture fasteners are recommended, especially if the damage is in a less visible area. The importance of using appropriate materials and techniques to ensure a smooth finish and prevent snagging on cloth is emphasized.
