Does anyone know where I can get the thin plywood to remake the little storage cupboards in my trailer-tent. The plywood is 'faced' with a false woodgrain finish.

Any local wood yard will sell all sorts of ply but as you haven't put your location in your profile you won't get any specific recommendations.

Hi Any Wickes store sell ply down to 3mm,as for faced ply there are online stores where you could order it from. Or you can get the ply from Whickes and buy the wood veneer and apply it yourself. Hope this helps

Try plywood skins for doors.

Hi There. Get down to B at Q and check near the timber cutting stand. Usually a trolley with off cuts for very little money. Myself i would get a sheet of birch plywood. If price not an issue get Marine ply. Carefully take the storage cupboard apart and use the pieces as templates. Neabother mentioned a clear vanish and it does look nice. You could dye the cupboard first then clear varnish it.
