Raffir® stabilized wood has high durability and can obtain a high gloss finish after polishing. It absorbs very little water after the treatment, and will have very low swelling and shrinkage at different humidity. Therefore it will not warp and crack as easily as untreated wood. The material has a smooth surface without parosities and needs no other finishing than fine sanding and polishing.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/header\u003e","brand":"Raffir®","offers":[{"title":".36\" x 1.8\" x 5.2\"- Scales","offer_id":50669559840999,"sku":"RW-PB-BROWN-1","price":35.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":".42\" x 1.6\" x 4.9\"- Select A","offer_id":51247973433575,"sku":"RW-PB-BRN-SELECT-A","price":35.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1.0\" x 1.7\" x 4.9\"- Block","offer_id":50669559873767,"sku":"RW-PB-BROWN-2","price":38.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1.0\" x 2\" x 4.75\"- Block- Select A","offer_id":51066145505511,"sku":"PB-BROWN-BLOC","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1.0\" x 3.9\" x 9.1\"- Master Block","offer_id":51172197368039,"sku":"PB-MB-BROWN","price":110.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2133\/5075\/files\/poplar-burl-scales-blocks-brown-stabilized-wood-by-raffirr-hobbies-creative-arts-maker-material-supply-36-x-18-x-52-scales-186457.webp?v=1738092015","url":"https:\/\/www.makermaterialsupply.com\/products\/poplar-burl-scales-blocks-brown-raffir-wood","provider":"Maker Material Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
