I have a project coming up to make a couple of radiators covers from mdf. I need to supply them primed ready for final colour.
Lots of raw edges to prime where slots cut to let the air flow. I'll be using mrmdf as I read this takes paint a lot better than the ordinary stuff
I see the pros using morrells and other pro products but these all seem to be sold in large quantities and are solvent based. I don't have a spray booth with all the necessary extraction etc etc just a Performance Pro (B&Q brand) HVLP sprayer - which works surprisingly well.
I need a primer/sealer that will produce an acceptable finish with an amateur HVLP sprayer ideally water based that I can buy retail from the sheds/screwfix/toolstation. Ideally not needing too much elbow grease between coats when sanding the routed profiles - I calculate that there will be around 60 metres of raw edge to treat!!
Any tips will be most welcome
