What's the secret to painting OSB so that it doesn't look like painted OSB? It doesn't have to be great, just not so cheap-looking.

Thanks.


The secret is buying sanded, maple, or birch ply.
There is no way to make a rough surface look good.

It's like how to I take a piece of crap and turn it into gold... you
just can't do it.

OSB is an awful material in my opinion. It rots real quickly, it
doesn't hold nails or screws real well.

It's been misused by builders over and over. My slate floor was laid on
top of it... The builder was an idiot.

And that's how I feel about it... :-)
