Choosing a type of finish is a matter of personal choice. Generally, a lower grade wood is used for projects where the finish will be painted. There may be minor imperfections that are not visible after the wood has been painted. A higher grade of wood would be used in a stained finish. The wood would contain fewer defects as well as having a more consistent color throughout the run.
