    I PREFER CHIPBOARD TOUNGE AND GROVE. They dont sag easy to scrape and last long time,

    the first loft i used it in was in 1982 and its still as good as the day it went down

    hav always used it ever since, when you scrape ply wood and the laminate flakes it digs into scrapper and lifts, it also dont dry out as quick as chipboard

    I think I know which type of board you mean, they come in 8'x 2' and have some kind of sealed coat on them.
