Hi Scholar, many thanks for the info regarding the sanding and the paint advice. Cheers

I am thinking of making and/or repairing some doors with Accoya and maybe Tricoya. If I use the Tricoya for visible panels or very wide planks will it have a noticeably different appearance to the Accoya after painting please?
