Bout a sheet for a Neighbor

I kind of like the looks and feels.  Cuts (Jig Saw) Great.

Look like something I've bought a lot of but not by that name.I can't wait to try some thanks

Looks great and yes well worth using for scrolling.

That is what Lowes is selling in place of the original "Luan". It is their Low Grade underlayment for finished flooring. If I am not mistaken I beleve one side is primed.

I have been using it for a backer. It is listed at our store as underlayment. I thought is was made of Luan. dave

Dave, it probably was luan/meranti that you used, this stuff is supposed to be an enviroment friendly substitute.

If this new product is the same as Meranti, I won't be using it, I don't like using Meranti. It's brittle and it doesn't stain evenly, and if painted the color of the wood bleeds through. Plus, at $13.00 U.S. per sheet, it's already more expensive than Meranti is.

Bet we can't get it down under.

Danny, thank you for your response. I think. I will probably not be using it but I am wanting to hear other reports. I have a lot of respect for Len's opinions, so it makes me a little gun shy at this point

I am not 100% certain but, I think this is the same product I bought

several months ago due to the price.

The back side of it was backed with paper.

I purchased it as backer material for intarsia projects so, it worked

just fine for the intended purpose.

God Bless! Spirithorse

 

P.s. Just for comparison purposes, I also bought some

UltraPly by Moreland Company and it was terrible!

It was extremely cheap so, I thought I'd try it for fretwork.
It has a lot of voids and splinters terribly.

The info they have on their web-site says you can

score it with a utility knife and snap it but, it will just delaminate

and splinter.

If you see this on sale, save yourself some aggravation and money.

God Bless! Spirithorse
