Hello all!
I had some replacement MDF doors made for me for a sideboard refurbishment. They seem to have come to a nice finish, in a dark green paint. The MDF was sanded & primed first.
The company used a polyurethane/oil-based paint (Sayerlack, I believe) in a satin (20% gloss) finish.
I understand that oil-based paint cures considerably more quickly than water-based - the doors were finished 3 weeks ago, but on hanging them, the finish does seem to pretty "delicate." I had some clear lacquer/varnish at home (Polyvine), but when I called them they said it would only work on water-based, not oil-based, paint.
So my question - is they any sort of varnish/lacquer that I can apply to the doors to make them a little more resistant? Any suggestions would be much appreciated!
