Nickel Gap can be installed horizontally to make a room feel larger, or vertically to make a low ceiling seem higher.

Kiln-dried southern yellow pine takes a finish very well, and can be clear-coated with polyurethane to maintain its natural bright yellow luster, or whitewashed. Southern Yellow pine is one of the most versatile woods in terms of how well it takes a variety of stains, paints, and finishes. The boards are planed smooth, and are unsanded and unfinished. Sanding is optional, recommended but not required. Most of the knots are tight, although there may be a loose knot (an open knot where there is a holy in the board) here and there. 16 or 18 gauge nails work fine for interior installations. Many people fill in the face nail holes by mixing some sawdust from cutting the boards with wood glue. This makes a paste that matches the color of the wood. These boards may be installed for outside siding/cladding provided that proper water-resistant painting, staining, or waterproofing sealing is applied.
