    Prefinished asian birch is offered in many thicknesses and there is no finishing involved. Infact the finish on the plywood is a 2 part epoxy thats baked on. It is more durable than anything that can be applied at home.

    These woods are nice, but the cost makes it not practical unless you have a business account at lowes/home depot or can buy a load at a time to get discount.

    Most prefinished oak,birch hard plywood here in stores fur $44+ per sheed of 3/4"
