Hi,
About 18 months ago I installed a pre finished mantel piece from wickes.
http://www.wickes.co.uk/orleans-mantle/invt/156856/
I cant remember exactly but think it was made from mdf.
Over the last 4 months, maybe more there have been some hairline cracks appear in the paint which have now become more noticeable with the mantel resembling a spiders web.
I want to repaint the mantel but how can i prevent the cracks from reappearing and what undercoat/topcoat is best to use?
Thanks
Tony
