Project Description

Select Alder from TaylorCraft will be clear of defects and the inherent color, character marks and grain patterns will be closely inspected and matched to create a more uniform appearance than our Natural grades. Select grade is recommended when reduced variation in appearance is desired or when used with clear or lightly stained finishes. General characteristics of Alder are: generally pale pinkish-brown to reddish peach in color with a subtle grain pattern which may include small pin knots, grain “fuzz” and a small amount of mineral streaks. Alder generally finishes smoothly and takes stain uniformly.
If you or your customers are not familiar with the species or our grading, we strongly recommend ordering a sample from TaylorCraft to prevent any misunderstanding.
