Hello Again,
I am hoping to refinish and recycle some veneered (I think its mahogany) mdf. There are also a few dinges and the odd screw hole to be addressed. These mdf panels were once part of a built in wardrobe and I am recycling them to become acoustic wall panels (see attached pic) in my recording studio. The panels need to match as closely as possible my grand piano which has a satin walnut finish. I am looking for advice on how best to re finish the veneered mdf. What I was thinking is to give the panels a light sand of 220 grit, clean well and apply a coat of Ronseal Interior Varnish satin walnut, light sanding, clean and apply another coat. See how they are looking and if another coat is required. Should the varnish be applied with a brush, foam pad yoke or a roller?
How should I address the dinges and the few holes in the veneer? Is filler the best option?
Thanks for any insights
regards
