This is a 1/2" thick unfinished imported White Birch whole-piece veneer-faced plywood. This is a paint-grade plywood that has a C grade face that allows for subtle variations in wood and may contain some patching. Nice smooth face, perfect for painting. The back side is a 2 grade. There are 9 plys in this sheet of plywood. Our plywoods are sold in larger sheets at the lumber yard and cut down to smaller sizes in our woodshop. Please allow 1/8"+/- variance in size to allow for saw blade cutting.
