Overview
All manner of different plywoods can be coated with a variety of lacquered, painted & primed finishes to match your required colour or finish. (The surface finish can be sprayed, curtain coated or roller/brush applied.)
In order to gain a more uniform and even surface a specially engineered paper overlay can often be applied over the plywood face prior to painting.
Our primed lightweight poplar plywood can be used as the substrate for improved surface finish.
