Took my maple dresser I am building to the finishing room tonight (ok, its
the same room as the table saw and everything else, I just wanted to sound
cool) and started applying my finish of choice. Dark brown stain and ...
Just kidding.

I am applying wipe on poly. The dresser has 1/2" maple ply on the sides
and back. My question is do you (should you) apply the poly to the back
side of the ply? Ply should be pretty stable to moisture right? I did it
anyway, but is it really necessary??

Thanks

To me, finishing both sides is cheap insurance.
