Sorry for the off-topic question, but I figure folks here could answer pretty well since birch plywood is commonly used in rockets.
I'm building something for my house that is primarily made of a sheet of 1/4" birch ply (about 12"x20"). I'll eventually want it to match my wall as closely as possible, which means that it'll be painted with standard matte latex interior paint.
To achieve a decent (just decent, not going crazy here) finish, does the birch plywood need anything more than a bit of sanding, primer, and paint? I'm not sure what else it might be, but I just figured I'd ask in cases there are any non-obvious steps I should take.
