It fills in nicely, and sanded down has a super hard finish that is paintable. Patrick |

Also I use fiberglass gelcoat on cabs before I prime/paint them, it makes them perfectly smooth and also makes the wood resistant to moisture. |

How do you apply the gelcoat? Is it sprayed? I've never heard this before.. |

Homemade arcade cabinets are probably not a common application for fiberglass, but in working with it on another project I spilled some and "accidentally" found out that it permanently bonds to floor underlayment (particle board). I don't think that it would adhere very well to MDF, though. |
