BS1008 or BS1088?

Post by steelycreative »

What's the difference between BS1008 and BS1088 meranti? Is it a fungicide that's added to one and not the other?

The BS1088 is 69 dollars a sheet up here on the west coast of Canada and I notice BS1008 is specified in the pre-cut boat kits. I can't even find BS1008 asround here.

Yes, it is a typo, all our wood in the kits is BS1088 Meranti.
