Is there a paint on filler that will work on Baltic Birch Edges? This would be for painted slab doors. Other ideas?

For a while I was using a lot of baltic birch and sealing the edges.
Here's the problem I have with Baltic Birch:
Everything I ever made with it develops raised grain within a couple years. Very disheartening. This is with a water grain raise step, then French polish. And with the Enduro-Var which is essentially self-grain raising, sanded between every coat. Many of non-production pieces were made with birch or maple solid components, the solid wood surfaces are flat, smooth, and satin glossy. Beside them, the BB has areas of extensive crinkled raised grain finish on nearly every piece. (BTW, the edges are still fine and smooth, FWIW)
