Anyone have suggestions on repairing a Gretsch Silver Jet sparkle top where a small section of the sparkle laminate has bubbled up? I assume this is a small area (approx 1" circle) where the glue used to adhere the plastic to the plywood top has failed.

You could use a hypodermic syringe to inject glue into the blister and then clamp it down.
