Painting MDF Wardrobes

[DaveC5]

Hi,

I am getting some MDF wardrobes made. They should come ready primed but I was wondering the best paint to use for final coat. The options as I see them are:
1. Special MDF paint
2. A Satinwood paint
3. Normal emulsion

Does it matter which I use?
Is it easy to get a good finish?
Paint Brush or roller?
Who I get the carpenter to do the complete job?

Any Suggestions?

Thanks

Two coats of satinwood on previously painted wood rubbed down between coats will look fine. It is also very durable and can be wiped etc. Do not use emulsion atall on woodwork. MDF paint load of sh@*e
