Abstract: The invention refers to a method of obtaining a pore-sealed surface having a desired finished structure on a lacquered sheet or web material, preferably a lacquered slab or board of a material containing wood fibres (lignocellulose) such as board or particle board material. According to the invention the slab or board is coated with a wet or powdery, clear or pigmented lacquer material. The slab or board so coated is dried and/or cured and the slab or board thereafter subjected to a compression operation under high mechanical pressure during a short time so that flowing of the lacquer material and/or sheet material takes place and a surface structure have good evenness and tightness is obtained. The invention also comprises a slab or board of finished structure manufactured according to the invention.
