I was looking at building materials at homedepot today and I saw that I can get 1/2 sanded pine plywood for about half the cost of melamine particle board...
Ply wood is much stronger and less likley to sag or bow than particle board but I want somthing that can be wiped clean.. The pores in wood can harbor all kinds of nasties...
Can polyurethane be used to coat the ply wood if given ample time to harden and fumigate?
