a clear finish. This is due to the fact that the color of hard maple does not
have much difference from the heartwood and the sapwood.

cheaper in price. It is more or less seventy percent of the cost of the hard
maple, hence it is not considered to be as an option for the purpose of
hardwood maple moulding. It is also cheaper in price than other
woods. Therefore, it is usually stained to give it a similar look like the
other species of wood. Mostly the look of cherry is tried to be imitated by
staining the soft panel. It has a color of grayish white with flecks of darker
colors. It is mostly used for a number of applications, for instance the wood
doors, wall panels, kitchen cabinets, furniture and wood mouldings. The basic
difference of soft maple with hard maple is that soft maple is twenty-five
percent softer than the hard maple.
