    Default Painting MDF

    I am building a new router table out of MDF and was looking at painting the sides to match the hardwood edging. Why? I don't know.

    I was just wondering if as with when veneering do I have to paint both sides to keep them uniform.

    cheers

    I would paint both sides of MDF, any bit of moisture and you could end up with greeny-tinged mdf.
