Looking for *any* info?
Have you checked out their website?

I'd read that. First not clear whether it is saying anything about LP's
own "fiber substrate" SmartSide. Again, LP's 'smooth' finish SmartSide
is not OSB - it's "fiber substrate". But, it's still (per local lumber
yard) in the SmartSide family.
Second, ppl's experience with this might be different than LP's
promotional material.
