I need to replace a panel on an accordion that was originally (ca 1950's) lauan ply with a layer of cellulose glued on. The cellulose has warped with age/temperature and the warped panel impedes the action of the instrument. The panel is of the 1/4 inch or whatever metric equivalent thereof (it was made in Italy). I will be flattening and re-gluing the celluose "veneer". I am not sure sheet metal is an option as a piece thick enough to resist flexion under use would be too heavy for the application.
Does hardboard resist warping better than lauan ply? I would consider this if it is a better material.
