    sned it back as well, WC is gonna rip you off for phenolic faced ply....you can get a full 4x8 sheet at whitecap for around the same price...and the sheets I saw in the woodcraft in Tucson, the phenolic was so thin it almost looked like it was painted on. I would get ply locally, paint it and put a coat or 2 of poly on it and you would be just as well off, or better imho.
    That which does not kill you will likely raise your insurance premiums.

    Can't comment on that stuff but it doesn't seem right.

    FWIW, get some baltic birch, laminate both faces with formica and move along. Instead of $7.50 a sq foot you are looking at about $5 and as good or better product.

    For best results, try not to do anything stupid.
