While we offer water-resistant MDF sheets, it is advised to seal them first before putting MDF in high-moisture areas. This is because water can enter the wood board and cause it to swell, distorting it.
Yes, MDF pieces and sheets can be painted. However, it is advised that you use a water-resistant sealer on all sides of the sheets before using water-based paint.
Sealer is used to stop the paint soaking into the board, and you need to apply multiple coats for maximum effect. You should always lightly sand MDF between coats of paint.
MDF sheets are carefully crafted by mixing small wood fibres with a bonding adhesive (such as resin or wax). Usually, MDF is made from small fibres of softwood, which are pressed at a high-heat and high-pressure to become a wooden board. The result is a durable, flexible building material.
