Paintable Panels

Choose Your Panel Thickness

Choose thickness for the panel dimensions, support, and attachment method your project needs. Maximum cut size is an ordering limit, not a guarantee of unsupported rigidity or flatness under every condition.

Prepare the Bare Surface Before Painting

These panels arrive unsealed and unprimed. Follow your sealer, ground, primer, and paint supplier's directions for bare plywood and your chosen acrylic, oil, or encaustic system. Preparation materials are not included. Plywood can respond to moisture and humidity, so plan the surface treatment and support for the work.

Plan Framing and Fitting Separately

The base order is the custom-cut panel. The product pages offer the same optional glazing and Create Custom Design choices as our backing boards. A frame, mats, glazing, and fitting or hanging hardware are included only when selected. Check the panel, paint surface, and every selected layer against the frame's usable rabbet depth. A standard frame overlaps the artwork edge; a floater frame leaves a reveal and requires an attachment method suitable for the panel.

Check usable rabbet depth before choosing a frame, then find fitting and finishing components in picture framing supplies. For project-specific fitting help, contact our framing team.

Need Plywood Behind an Artwork Package?

The same Baltic birch material is also offered as backing board. Use mounting and backing board to compare it with other supports. Plywood is not identified as acid-free; choose a suitable conservation support for direct contact with valuable paper artwork or photographs.
