I have been using this exact process for decades. When completed, it will last as long as the rest of the finish will. I have a 1940's guitar I repaired over 20 years ago, this exact way, and it still looks fantastic, so it does last.

I will post some pics, when I get a chance, its hard to do, as the cracks dont photograph real well, but the finished piece should show very well.

I use the cheap liquid superglue, not the gel, and I do flex the wood, to allow it to flow as deep as possible.

As for the lacquer, the regular clear stuff in a spray can works fine. I usually put a good amount on, and then wet sand it down to a real smooth surface, then buff it out with rubbing compound. It will shine like new if done right.

Also, if the edges of the veneer are curling away from the back, put some glue behind them, then clamp it down to a board that is flat, this will help straighten them out a bit.

This beats trying to refinish the whole piece, just to fix a couple small cracks!!

Just try it, its really easy to do, and cheap.

I will shoot a couple pics tomorrow,so you can see the results.
