2013年7月12日 · Hi all Will soon have a fair amount of MDF to prime. I already have some Zinsser BIN and Zinsser Bullseye 123 so am hoping I can use one of these rather than buy something new.

2019年9月2日 · Now the only primer I ever use the Leyland Trade acrylic primer/undercoat when hand painting MDF. It is the only waterbased primer that I have found that is a dream to sand. That said, I pretty much sand nearly all of it off. I sand until I can see the parallel lines created when the MDF was machined at the factory.

2016年3月28日 · I am trying to make some furniture using MDF. I have been recommended to 1) Sand with 120 grit, 2) prime with Zinsser BIN, 3) Sand with 220 grit, 4) paint with Dulux Trade Satinwood. I am at the second step, and have just applied my first coat of Zinsser BIN with a gloss roller: You can...

2006年12月4日 · Hi folks. Thanks to the info on a previous thread i have purchased some MDF primer i needed. My question is that i have also had a couple doors re-hung the other side of the frame so new door stops that have been put in with "normal" wood....

2005年12月8日 · What exactly is an MDF primer? I've been doing some research on how to best paint MDF (I'm building a built-in cabinet). In terms of priming, I seen this term floated around in several areas - "use an MDF primer". But going to my local DIY store, I see nothing in the shelves that call out "MDF Primer".

2006年4月6日 · The project I am doing requires several pieces of mdf to be screwed/glued together, should I paint all these first or assemble it all then paint it - the problem with this is that I wont be able to get into the corners and such to sand, but if I paint it first then theres a chance of the finish geting damaged whilst assembling.

2014年12月1日 · I just did some shelves which were new 25mm moisture resistant MDF, and I gave them 1 coat of watered down white acrylic primer (about 65/35 paint to water) on the faces. I also gave the raw edges 3 coats, and sanded between coats then applied a very fine layer of lightweight filler to them, sanded and primed a 4th time.

2017年1月15日 · Then use a Primer and Undercoat in 1 for the timber, then 2 coats eggshell or B) Use the MDF primer on both MDF and timber, then apply some separate undercoat to the timber, then eggshell on both. or C) I've read that you can use Bullseye 123 Primer on MDF and timber, and that no undercoat is needed with it even on the timber. If this is true ...

2008年6月24日 · The best bet is to prime, although you don't necessarily need to use a specific MDF primer. A regular oil based or even water based will do the job as you are papering it. The reason for painting first is to seal the MDF which will allow the paper to slide easier on application and also to stop it absorbing all the paste.

2012年12月20日 · Unless you like sanding I'd avoid water-based primers. I've used pre-catylised MDF undercoat, but that can be hard to find in small quantities, however Zinsser make a sealant called "B-I-N Multi Surface Primer" which our decos used on a job in Manchester with good results. Don't know if it is water based, however.
