Product Description
Baltic Birch Plywood is lightweight multi-ply plywood made entirely of birch plies, using no softwood or filler plies in the center. The result is a product with greater stiffness, strength and durability. Baltic birch is graded as a B-BB, which means that one face, B, will be a whole face, no splices, have no patches (plugs that are used to cover defects) but may contain knot pattern or mineral streaks. The other face, BB, and the inner plies will contain patches and tight and not so tight knots. Both faces are sanded smooth. Multiple-ply edges can be sanded or routed, and the plywood has excellent screw-holding power. The exterior glue used in this plywood makes it suitable for outdoor projects (with an appropriate outdoor finish). Common uses of Baltic Birch Plywood include cabinet backs, drawer sides and bottoms, painted scrollsaw projects, or when building jigs and fixtures.

Sand the surface smoothly, then apply a sealer or wood finish such as polyurethane, lacquer, or oil. Finish with light sanding between coats for a durable, attractive surface. How to paint birch plywood? Prime the surface first with a quality primer, sand it smooth, and then apply paint in thin, even coats. Birch plywood takes paint well and provides a clean, professional finish when properly prepared. Can you stain birch plywood? Yes, you can stain birch plywood, but it’s best to use a pre-stain conditioner first to help prevent blotching. Birch can be challenging to stain evenly, so test your color on a scrap piece before starting.
