One of those days where I just can't make my mind up and 'er indoors isn't helping.
Need to replace some (inherited with the house) cheap and nasty built in bedroom furniture and scratching my head wondering what to use.
Sliding doors are out and Contiplas out of the question for anything exterior but, "may" consider cream for interior shelves.
Been having a look around various veneered MDF suppliers and came across veneered blockboard - now I'm wondering which is better? It's 30 - 40 years since I've used blockboard and can't remember how it would perform as far as bowing is concerned on say a wardrobe side panel.
Still trying to decide on what to use for doors - make with hardwood frames and veneered MDF panels or, buy ready made/finished ones if any sensible prices around. Find getting a good paint finish (no spraying facilities) on bare routed MDF is a pain so tending to rule that option out.
Any ideas/advice welcome, I'm out of touch with what's around in the way of wraps/foils etc. which may be alternatives.
