Painting an MDF wardrobe

Posted by Chrissy Mouttet, on
Hi, I've just had a wardrobe built in my bedroom and wanted to have a go at doing it myself. What's the best brand of paint to use? And is water/acrylic/solvent the best base to use? Thanks very much!

Hi, acrylic primer, then another, rub down lightly to achieve a smooth surface, use 120 grade sandpaper, then a top coat of what ever finish you want. hope this helps Mike
