Best way to seal/paint end of MDF panel? **NEW PICS INSIDE!!**

Pages: (1/5) > >>

javeryh:

I'm building my daughter a bookcase (which takes precedence over the arcade cab according to the wife but if I build it she won't give me grief about finishing the cabinet tomorrow so it's a win-win, I guess).  I have cut all of the panels and routed the decorative edges and now I'm up to the glue/paint stage.  I'm afraid to apply paint to the edge because I don't think it will take paint well.  What should I do?

PICS COMING SOON.

It'll actually take it better than you think.... it'll soak it up.
You could apply a coat of Kilz sealer or just put on extra coats of the color.

How about using PVA glue like Fozzy The Bear suggests?
