I have mainly used it on ply so I can get a smooth finish before painting. As I said earlier, my friend used it to seal MDF panels he was using for vacuum forming and it did the job, didn't cause any problems. However, if the advice from Wattyl is not to use it then go with their advice to err on the side of caution.

Man! That's hard to sort out.
My plan for MDF
1. Clean off all dust.
2. This stuff is toxic so completely covered in protective gear is a must. A fumes/gas mask NOT just a dust mask. I'm also using a fan to blow the fumes away.
3. Mix well and Apply lightly taking care not to pool nor drip nor over brush.
4. Dry for 6 hours in a well ventilated area away from any flame or potential spark.
5. Gently and lightly sand with 320+ grit paper.
6. repeat as needed.
18 hours after the first coat the fumes were horrendous.
The good lady won't let me back in the shop on Christmas day so will have to wait.Thanks,

OK My CNC cutter is opening again after the holiday bread.
I've already ordered the sleigh and santa templates from them.
Does anyone have a suggestion on how to store all the templates and figures for 11 months?
Some are really large other are small.
The paint and sealers make stacking the parts touching impossible.
I was thinking of how they store painting in vertical files maybe.
Something like this:
WetCanvas - View Single Post - Build your own drying and storage rack
Or this:
A simple DIY drying rack for plein air panels and small paintings | Lines and Colors :: a blog about drawing, painting, illustration, comics, concept art and other visual arts
The issue is the paint is covers the entire template/figure.
Not just one side.
Flash! Instead of strings use nails. drill appropriate number of nail holes in templates/fingures and hang them so they don't touch anything. hmmmmmmThanks,

Don't happen to live on Ringood - Warrandyte Rd by any chance? Saw a couple of likely looking reindeers in a paddock out there. If they are yours, they look pretty good!!

take a pic next time you are there.
The forklift driver mentioned they had run a test and had the reindeer in the conference room for a few days.
Someone ended up taking them out to his farm some where.
Might be the same guy.Thanks,

removal of sanding sealer
"....
(1) apply the sanding sealer on a well sanded surface,
(2) lightly sand with say 240-320 Grit when the sealer has dried,
(3) clean the surface with methylated spririt and a soft rag, and
(4) apply several coats of a final finish of the right type
- - (Sorry - I don't know what type at the moment is compatible with your sanding sealer). Sand with 240 - 320 grit between coats.
....
"Thanks,

If anyone is looking for templates like this again, I can make them from 3mm PVC sheet, the sheets are regular 2440x1220 or I can go up to 3050x1520mm.
Perfectly suited to tracing templates, and can be used with an edge trimmer too.
I'm also based in Melbourne, and while I am using a machine at work, I can look after people on price.

I'm in Bonbeach, the business is in Oakleigh.
Because we typically buy print-grade PVC In high volume, we also get good rates on cheaper stuff that's perfect for templates.

Issues with 200+ junk mails a day kept me busy over the last week or so.
Changing to a new email address was easier than getting Bigpond to do the right thing.
Grunto,
Nope thats not the design from the Sketchup Warehouse design.
Decent enough though.Thanks,
