      Should have contacted me to "attempt" another failed group buy for baltic. I could of sold you 5x5ft sheets for $45 per sheet if we get enough people involved. We typically need about 35 sheets worth

      Make sure you stain it first.

      I would hate to spend that much money on wood and have moisture destroy it.

    4. altoncustomtech

      altoncustomtech

      Planned on coating it with resin, then smoothing that down and putting on body filler for a perfectly flat and smooth surface, then applying bedliner. Moisture shouldn't be an issue.
