Surley if its beech just let the mould grow as ,I am sure thats what causes it to spalt , and spalted beech is much cooler , to look at well thats what I think , other people may want just plain boards , but If I have mould on beech I tend to just leave it never had any probs , but make sure you have a bloody good dust mask on when first sanding it , I have an airshield pro best 200quid ever spent well almost Cheers Mark
