MDF paint process?

<< < (2/3) > >>

tkuper05:
So what about latex paint over my oil primer then?

krion:
i used latex primer and latex paint which turned out brilliantly.  I used Zinser brand primer and a decent quality latex paint on top.  2 coats of primer and i think 4 coats of paint sanding between each, looks really good.  Oil makes life easy on MDF, but if you use a really good quality latex primer and put 2 coats, allowing each to dry properly, it should be fine.

tkuper05:
I will definitely consider latex paint on latex primer.  I just don't want to use a water based primer.  Do you have any pics of your cabinet Krion?

I'm very ignorant with types of paint.  So, latex is water-based?  If so, I'm going to use oil-based primer and latex paint.  If latex primer isn't water-based then I'm gonna use latex on latex.
