I once saw a sheet good that had 3 veneers (3/8″) of plywood in the center, with a MDF outer veneer (1/8″ each) on each side. Then the hardwood veneer to bring it up to right at 3/4″ total. I don’t know the name of this product, or who makes it. Anybody know?
Thanks

possibly MDO?
medium density overlay.
exterior plywood with a water resistent coating ... paints up nice.
sometimes called "sign board".

No, MDO just has a paper face on plywood (as I see it). This had about an 1/8" or better of MDF material to keep it TOTALLY smooth. It was cool stuff. I should have taken better note of it at the time.

The name medium density overlay imp[lies to me that there exists a high demsity overlay, HDO. Could that be it?
I think so,
