To remove the old laminate I used my heat gun although a regular clothes iron would likely also work well. Be careful at the corners as it gets thinner there. Just start at one end and gently pry out enough to get a grip then pull it straight out from it’s slot. I found the T-moulding was easily removed and was not damaged, so it was fine to reuse. So here’s how I went about the less-than-two-hour project of renovating the old fence face. Removing the face, then, is somewhat problematic. Problem is, the plywood is screwed to the fence’s steel tube and then the plastic laminate was applied. The ply was faced with plastic laminate and edged with T-moulding on three sides. The fence face is a piece of 1/2″ “Apple” ply, the U.S. It had a couple minor encounters with a powered-up blade and a few screws had been driven into it damaging the laminate face and leaving behind small bumps where those screws were inserted, sans pilot hole. Do you think the fence face was finally due for some rehabilitation? You betcha. In the Popular Woodworking Magazine shop, we’ve been using a Powermatic 66 table saw equipped with a Biesemeyer table saw fence for going on 17 years.
