The Wood Rolls are pre primed but we do recommend a light sanding to ensure and even application of painting, staining or leave in its raw state. We would always recommend finishing with a clear topcoat no matter how you decide to finish them.
Are they easy to join together?
For those that are wanting to make a continuous feature or pattern with the Wood Rolls, each panel can be lined up together to create this effect. On occasion and depending on how the roll was cut there may be slight gaps/join lines between each panel which can easily be fixed with wood filler for a seamless finish.
