Recommended
Moisture Content For Wood Prior To Finishing
|
|
Hardwoods' moisture content should be 6-8
percent. Softwoods' moisture content should be 10-12 percent. Always use a
moisture gauge to randomly check wood's moisture content. Store lumber in
a warm dry room. Wood shrinks when it loses moisture and expands when it
absorbs moisture. |
